US coffee giant Starbucks expands its footprint in North China's Tianjin Municipality on Friday by opening a new high-end Starbucks Reserve outlet in the city. The new store is located in a historic building that was a bank in the early 1900s when Tianjin was the northern financial center of China. Facing fierce competition, Starbucks now is focused on more Reserve stores in the Chinese market. Photo: VCG
