Gong Cha Boba Tea
Gong Cha is a popular bubble tea franchise that originated in Taiwan in 2006. Since then, the brand has rapidly expanded to over 20 countries, with over 1,500 stores worldwide. Gong Cha’s mission is to provide high-quality tea products and excellent customer service to tea enthusiasts worldwide. Franchise Marketing Systems worked closely with the Gong Cha leadership team to build, define and execute the franchise marketing and franchise sales programs in the United States.
One of the main reasons for Gong Cha’s success is their commitment to quality. The brand sources its tea leaves from the best tea-growing regions in Taiwan, Japan, and China.

Gong Cha’s menu features a variety of drinks, including milk tea, fruit tea, and brewed tea. The franchise also offers customizable options, allowing customers to choose their preferred sweetness and ice level. Gong Cha’s signature topping is their tapioca pearls, which are made fresh every day using traditional Taiwanese techniques. Other toppings include fruit jelly, aloe vera, and red bean.
In addition to their high-quality products, Gong Cha also places a strong emphasis on customer service. The brand trains its staff to provide friendly and efficient service, ensuring that every customer feels valued and satisfied. Gong Cha also offers a loyalty program, allowing customers to earn points for every purchase they make. These points can be redeemed for free drinks and other rewards.
Gong Cha offers several franchise models to suit different investor needs. The initial investment required to open a franchise varies depending on the location and type of store, but typically ranges from $150,000 to $450,000. The franchise fee is $45,000, and the ongoing royalty fee is 6% of gross sales.
Gong Cha provides its franchisees with comprehensive training and support, including:
· Site selection and lease negotiation

· Staff training and ongoing support
· Marketing and advertising materials
· Regular updates on new products and promotions
Gong Cha also offers ongoing support to help franchisees grow their businesses. This includes regular visits from field support representatives, who provide advice and assistance on everything from inventory management to staff training. The brand also hosts regular franchisee meetings and conferences, allowing franchisees to network with each other and share best practices.
One of the key advantages of owning a Gong Cha franchise is the brand’s strong reputation and customer loyalty. Gong Cha has a large and dedicated following, which can help new franchisees attract customers and generate sales quickly. The brand’s ongoing marketing and promotional activities also help to keep the brand top-of-mind with consumers.
Another advantage of owning a Gong Cha franchise is the flexibility of the business model.
