Recently, South Asia's economy has shown resilience in the face of global headwinds, and worldwide the bubble tea market is expected to grow from $2.46 billion in 2023 to $4.08 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 7.51%. With favorable conditions regionally and market growth globally, CoCo has encountered considerable enthusiasm from South Asian businesspeople to explore bubble tea's yet untapped potential.

South Asia's dynamic consumer market

Already popular in other parts of Asia, the US and Europe, bubble tea is popular globally because of its appeal to diverse audiences, particularly Gen Z. Specific to South Asia, several key factors make the refreshment lucrative:

• Growing market size: Rising urbanisation and a booming middle class in countries like India and Pakistan provide opportunities for international brands.
• Changing consumer preferences: A growing interest in flavours from other countries combined with the Instagram-worthy appeal of bubble tea positions the beverage uniquely to captivate the younger, more urban populations of South Asia.
• Cultural adaptability: CoCo embraces customisation, enabling the creation of numerous region-specific flavours to amplify appeal and bridge global trends with local tastes.

At the center of recent bubble tea growth in the US and Europe, CoCo made an impressive leap from 3500 to 5000 stores from 2019 to 2023, securing an extensive footprint that positions it well for its latest move.

In addition, significant interest from South Asian franchisees and entrepreneurs at various international conferences indicates high demand in the region for bubble tea. With this expansion, it will focus primarily on partnerships with sizeable refreshment companies and master franchisors.
