Taiwan Starbucks is entirely owned and operated by Uni-president Enterprise Corp. It was part of a deal where Starbucks, the parent corp acquired half of ownership in mainland China Starbucks while giving up all Taiwan ownership.

Over here, Luckin seems more popular than Starbucks, for similar, slightly better quality and slightly worse atmosphere.
