About Starbucks Brand Colors

Starbucks Green is reinforced by more than the storefront mark. The company identifies the green apron—worn by partners since 1987—as one of its most recognizable symbols and connects it with the craft behind each drink. That repeated use across people, place, packaging, and signage gives the color a lived operational role.

The darker green and pale mint in the reference palette extend the system beyond one logo color: deep green supports text and immersive surfaces, while the pale tone provides a quieter background. White preserves clarity around the siren and typography. Studying those roles does not authorize reuse of the mark, apron trade dress, or store identity.
