- La Kaffa International Co., Ltd. (2732.TWO) operates a portfolio of franchised chain restaurants focused on food and beverage services in Taiwan and internationally. The company offers tea and beverages, bakery and confectionery products, English light meals, traditional Taiwanese snacks and ices, Japanese pork chops, beef noodles, deep-fried steak, and Japanese dumplings through brands including Chatime, Merry Pho, Bake Code, Engolili, Apricot Japanese Pork Chop, Duan Junzhen, Osaka Wangsho, Kyoto Katsuhito, Tiger's Bowl, GOMAX, Fruit and Wheat De Fresh Drink Creation, Juice Tea, heilongtang, lvatea, and Green Chilli; it markets these in approximately 60 countries across Asia, North America, Europe, and other regions. Founded in 2004 and headquartered at No. 98, Gaotie 9th Road, Zhubei City, Hsinchu County, Taiwan, La Kaffa targets consumers seeking diverse quick-service dining options via its franchise model.
La Kaffa recently acquired Tainan's Hanlin Tea Room for NT$272 million in January 2025 to expand its bubble tea and beef noodle offerings internationally, complementing its Chatime brand and supporting plans for over 100 new stores, particularly in Southeast Asia where Indonesia leads performance. The company maintains strategic partnerships, such as with 911APP for omnichannel operations and Korean franchise Food Zone for 200 Chatime stores over five years, while investing in supply chain enhancements including tapioca production and drinkbot technology to reduce costs and boost efficiency. These moves drive double-digit revenue growth projections for 2025 amid ongoing global expansion.
