We were able to prove that the brand is not just a cup of coffee but a lifestyle partner who’d face anything with our stakeholders. Throughout the pandemic, Barista increased brand accessibility and affordability despite many challenges. Timely digital transformation of business platforms and redefinition of service standards that are suited for digital operations helped the brand to win the hearts of customers.”
