Opening a boba shop? Don't do it alone.
We help new shops get open and stay open: sourcing, recipes, equipment, and honest numbers from a family that runs its own boba shops and supplies many more. And if you want a proven brand over the door, you can license Li Cha without franchise strings.
Wherever you are, there's a door.
Dreaming about a shop, ready to build one, or already pouring drinks. Pick the path that fits and we'll meet you there.
Opening a shop? We've been on both sides of the counter.
We own and run our own independent boba shops, and we supply many more. We know what works and what quietly kills margins because we live it daily. Bring us your plan and we'll help you get it right the first time.
- Ingredient sourcing and menu planning
- Recipes and drink building that hold up at volume
- Equipment guidance without the markup pressure
- Cost and margin math before you sign anything
Want a proven brand behind you? License it.
Open under the Li Cha name with a license agreement. You get the brand and the recipes. You keep your independence. No franchise fees, no royalty treadmill.
- Use the Li Cha brand and logo
- Authentic Taiwanese recipes and specs
- Direct supply of every core ingredient
- You own your shop, your lease, your upside
Already open? You just need a better supplier.
Skip the consulting and go straight to what every shop needs: reliable ingredients at wholesale pricing, from a warehouse that actually has them in stock.
- 10% off any order with a resale certificate
- 15% off plus Net-30 at volume
- No order minimums, ever
- Bay Area pickup or nationwide shipping
Because our win condition is your shop surviving.
Consultants get paid whether your shop makes it or not. We don't. We run our own boba shops, so the advice you get was tested with our own money before we ever offered it to you. And since we only do well if you're still ordering pearls from us five years from now, everything points at one thing: a shop that lasts.
