New Starbucks shop to open by late August

The new Starbucks under construction at 6252 Wilmington Pike in Sugarcreek Twp. is nearing completion and will open in late August or early September, a Starbucks spokeswoman said this morning.

The coffee shop’s opening will come a few weeks after its neighbor with the same address, Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt, is scheduled to open in mid-August, the yogurt shop’s franchisee said last week. Together, the two businesses will add 30 to 35 jobs.

Starbucks will occupy about 1,800 square feet that includes newly added space to an existing building, while Orange Leaf will move into space that formerly housed a CiCi’s Pizza shop.

The Starbucks spokeswoman said the Sugarcreek Twp. location will include a drive-through and will hire about 20 employees. The two businesses will share an outdoor patio.

Starbucks operates more than two dozen locations in southwest Ohio.
