Brand

Brand: Gong Cha

Gong Cha (Chinese: 貢茶; pinyin: Gòngchá) is a tea drink franchise originally founded in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. In 2017, 70% of ownership was sold to Kim Yeo-jin (金汝貞), owner of Gong Cha Korea, Gong Cha's Korea franchisee, with backing from private equity firm Unison Capital. In 2019, TA Associates agreed to provide growth investment to Gong Cha and later bought 100% of Gong Cha Korea. UK company GC Group BIDCO Limited bought the remaining 30% in the same year, with GC Group BIDCO renamed to Gong Cha Global in 2020, moving the global headquarter to UK.

Gong Cha expanded to Hong Kong in 2006, and by 2012 had further expanded internationally to Macau, South Korea, New Zealand, Australia, Malaysia, the United Kingdom, Canada, the United States, the Philippines, Myanmar, Vietnam, Japan, Singapore, Brunei, and China.
