We welcome new franchisees as we continue to expand our footprint in key markets around the world.”
Gong cha’s famous bubble tea is a premium milk tea infused with pearls (delicious chewy pearl-shaped tapioca), flavored with fruit and other toppings and usually served over ice. Gong cha’s top flavors include Pearl Milk Tea and Brown Sugar Milk Tea, and the company always offers innovative seasonal products, such as Mango Milk Foam Slush and Crème Brulee. Gong cha uses only the highest-quality, premium tea sourced from the finest tea estates of the famous Alesha region in Taiwan, serving freshly-brewed, customized bubble tea in 600 combinations, offering customers a new bubble tea experience with every visit. The company’s dedication to quality is the foundation of its promise to customers, helping to generate repeat business.
In addition to growing its market presence, Gong cha will also be expanding its bubble tea offerings in 2021, continuing the company’s well-known product innovation. This will include the February launch of the company’s Chocolate Lava Series, and the return of the popular Little Star Jelly Series.
