About the project
BEE was contracted by Starbucks to conduct full-scope LEED CI services for their two locations in Hefei and the Shanghai Expo, the very first LEED stores for Starbucks in Mainland China. Additionally, we are working closely with the Starbucks team to pursue LEED certification for the Shanghai Roastery (second Roastery in the world), Tokyo Roastery (third in the world), Milan Roastery (fourth in the world), and on their new store in Kobe, Japan.
BEE was initially hired by Starbucks to implement training programs for their internal sustainability initiative for design and construction based on the LEED Volume Program (both v1.0 and v2.0). This relationship evolved into BEE managing the LEED certification process for Starbuck’s stores.
In addition to providing sustainable design and construction strategies, BEE incorporated the QLEAR Intelligent Building Management system to monitor the indoor air quality in real-time which improved the overall IAQ performance.
