Tea Beverage Brand Enters North America_

 On October 2, [BINGXUE](https://www.instagram.com/bingxueshiguang/) officially 
opened its first U.S. store in Davis, California, drawing strong foot traffic and
sustained crowds throughout the day. From the moment the store opened, large numbers
of local consumers gathered to explore the brand and line up for their favorite 
products. The line stretched more than 50 meters along the street, creating a striking
new consumer destination in the neighborhood. Several signature soft serve and beverage
products sold out within half a day, while customer traffic remained consistently
high throughout the day, with staff working at full capacity to serve customers.
According to store data, more than 1,000 beverages were sold on opening day, quickly
generating strong consumer interest in the local market. The store quickly became
a popular new destination in Davis, with many local residents sharing their visits
on social media and generating widespread local buzz.

 The grand opening also received significant attention and support from local government
and business representatives. Davis Mayor Donna Neville attended the ribbon-cutting
ceremony in person, joining the BINGXUE team to mark the official opening of the
brand’s first North American store. Following the ceremony, Mayor Neville visited
the store to learn more about BINGXUE’s ingredient standards, product portfolio,
and global supply chain, and sampled several of the brand’s signature tea beverages.
The beverages were well received for their quality and refreshing flavors, further
strengthening BINGXUE’s connection with the local community and highlighting its
growing presence in the market. The warm and engaging exchange throughout the event
helped bring the brand closer to the local community and support its deeper integration
into the North American market.

 Representatives from the local chamber of commerce also attended the grand opening
to congratulate the BINGXUE team and engaged in in-depth discussions with the brand
on topics including localized operations, integration into the local business community,
and opportunities for community collaboration. The recognition and welcome from 
the local business community provide a strong foundation for BINGXUE to establish
a long-term presence in California.

 This achievement reflects the brand’s long-term investment in supply chain development,
compliance systems, and product localization. Although its first U.S. store opened
only this year, BINGXUE began preparing for FDA requirements related to relevant
ingredients three years ago, while its supply chain planning started even earlier.
The company has spent years preparing its ingredients, certifications, production
processes, and compliance systems for the U.S. market. The launch of its first store
was therefore the result of long-term planning rather than a short-term market test.

 Founded in Shandong in 2014, [BINGXUE](https://www.bingxueglobal.com/) began its
international expansion in 2023. In just three years, the brand has entered 18 countries
and regions, with more than 5,000 contracted stores worldwide. Of these, more than
2,000 are overseas, with over 1,500 overseas stores already in operation, while 
the overseas store closure rate remains below 1%. From Southeast Asia to North America,
BINGXUE continues to expand its global footprint.

 BINGXUE’s global expansion strategy did not begin simply with opening stores overseas.
It began with the long-term development of its brand, supply chain, and international
compliance capabilities. BINGXUE is the first Shandong-based tea beverage brand 
to enter the U.S. market. Its ability to establish a presence in one of the world’s
most competitive consumer markets, with stringent market-entry requirements, demonstrates
the strength of its broader business and operational capabilities.

 On the product side, BINGXUE offers a diversified portfolio spanning fresh fruit
teas, milk teas, signature soft serve, yogurt smoothies, and other categories to
cater to different tastes and consumption occasions. According to research by Champ
Consulting, BINGXUE’s matcha soft serve ranks No. 1 globally in sales.

 In terms of store experience, BINGXUE’s new 8.0 store format enhances customer 
engagement through a five-senses approach and premium aesthetics, while maintaining
the same pricing structure and continuing its positioning of “premium experience
at accessible prices.” The choice of Davis for its first U.S. store was not a simple
replication of its domestic model, but a decision based on the city’s university
ecosystem and young consumer base, supported by localized adjustments.

 Many may ask why BINGXUE chose Davis rather than a major city such as Los Angeles
or San Francisco for its first U.S. store. The answer lies in the character of the
city itself.

 Davis is one of the birthplaces of the U.S. “Farm-to-Fork” movement, where local
ingredients and sustainable agriculture are deeply embedded in everyday life. UC
Davis is consistently recognized as a leading institution in agriculture and food
science. This strong emphasis on ingredients closely aligns with BINGXUE’s “Global
Flavors Season” concept, which explores source regions and local flavors.

 As a classic college town, Davis has a large student and university-affiliated 
population, while its diverse and open-minded community provides a strong audience
for new-style tea beverages. Rather than competing for traffic in a major metropolitan
market, BINGXUE positioned its first store close to consumers who value ingredients
and are willing to try new products. In Davis’s competitive tea beverage market,
the brand has also differentiated itself through accessible pricing and distinctive
flavors that resonate with local consumers.

 Successful international expansion for a tea beverage brand depends on far more
than store operations. It requires an integrated system covering ingredients, production,
certification, warehousing, logistics, and training. BINGXUE established its own
factory as early as 2018. In August 2026, the BINGXUE Industrial Park officially
opened in Qihe, Shandong, with a total investment of RMB 660 million, integrating
manufacturing, R&D, training, and supply chain operations.

 The industrial park includes production facilities covering key product categories
such as powdered beverages, juices and jams, tea, and dairy products, supported 
by an R&D center and business training system. Together, these capabilities form
an integrated chain spanning raw-material production, product development, staff
training, warehousing, logistics, and store operations. More than 80% of BINGXUE’s
raw materials are currently supplied by its own factories.

 The company has also established a three-tier logistics network consisting of central
warehouses, regional warehouses, and partner warehouses, supporting stores worldwide
through domestic warehousing, overseas warehouses, and localized production.

 Meanwhile, to meet food safety and production requirements across different countries
and regions, BINGXUE has continued to strengthen its international compliance capabilities
and has obtained six international certifications and related qualifications, including
Halal, ISO 22000, HACCP, and FDA-related certifications and approvals. From factories
to overseas warehouses, and from ingredient certification to store training, BINGXUE
is gradually converting years of industrial investment into overseas operating capabilities.

 For [BINGXUE](https://www.instagram.com/bingxueshiguang/), international expansion
also means building a supply chain capable of supporting operations across different
markets. The company has taken a more asset-intensive approach, building the infrastructure
and capabilities needed to support its expansion into the U.S. market.

 The first U.S. store is only the beginning. A second U.S. location is already in
development and is expected to open on Oxnard Boulevard in California. As Jiang 
Huabei, founder and general manager of BINGXUE, said, “The overseas market offers
greater room for growth than the domestic market. If you decide to enter it, the
goal should not be simply to test the waters, but to build for the long term, develop
the market thoroughly, and meet unmet consumer needs.”

 Going forward, [BINGXUE ](https://www.bingxueglobal.com/)will continue to build
on its supply chain capabilities, focus on product development, and strengthen localized
operations as it steadily advances toward its goal of reaching 10,000 stores worldwide
within three years. With its entry into North America, BINGXUE is bringing Chinese
tea beverages to more consumers around the world and opening a new chapter in the
international expansion of Chinese tea culture.
