Starbucks’ new logo redesign is a problem for Saudi Arabia.Starbucks logoNow that the Seattle-based coffee mega-chain announced plans to drop its name from its green mermaid logo, it’s left with nothing to brand itself in certain countries.

Branches in Saudi Arabia, deeming the naked siren “morally inappropriate” for its devout Muslim clientele, ditched all but the mermaid’s crown back in 1992.
