The 2025 Year-End Tea Friends Review shows that CHAGEE's store network currently operates in China, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, and the United States. In April, CHAGEE completed its public listing on the NASDAQ exchange (Ticker: CHA), becoming the first freshly made tea beverage brand from China to list on a U.S. stock exchange and one of the largest food and beverage IPOs globally since 2022, according to publicly available market data.
Overseas growth has supported the expansion of CHAGEE's customer base. According to the Report, membership in Asia-Pacific overseas markets rose 177% year-on-year in 2025, with 61% of members under the age of 30.

BO•YA JASMINE GREEN MILK TEA Gains Worldwide Popularity
As CHAGEE's global presence grows, BO•YA Jasmine Green Milk Tea continued to gain recognition across international markets. Data from Frost & Sullivan shows that sales of the beverage surpassed 1.25 billion cups between January 2022 and June 2025. The Review indicates BO•YA Jasmine Green Milk Tea ranks among the top-selling products in Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Thailand.

In the past year, more than 30 million customers placed single orders for two or more cups of BO•YA Jasmine Green Milk Tea, highlighting shared consumption occasions. Group orders rose notably, with orders exceeding 20 cups increasing by more than 15% and orders over 100 cups rising by more than 40% year-on-year.During the Spring Festival holiday, orders of 50–100 cups surged by as much as 259% year-on-year.

Within the tea industry, CHAGEE continues to deepen partnerships with upstream producers. In 2025, the company's annual tea sourcing remained at approximately the 10,000-ton scale, with partnerships extending to more than 100 tea factories.
Product innovation further links industry capabilities with consumer preferences. Last year, CHAGEE introduced over 20 new products. Within the Fresh Milk Tea series, more than 50% of new releases featured floral or fruit elements. By applying its Fresh Brew technology system, CHAGEE has integrated contemporary extraction techniques into freshly made tea beverage preparation, bringing new flavor expressions to traditional tea leaves.
In 2025, CHAGEE also completed over 10 craftsmanship and process innovation initiatives in collaboration with tea gardens, factories, and research institutions.
The 2025 Year-End Tea Friends Review further notes that CHAGEE now operates more than 25 pet-friendly stores, has supported the construction of 23 children's playgrounds this year, opened 14 deaf-inclusive silent stores, added 219 new 24-hour locations, and opened new stores at an average rate of one every 1.7 days. Approximately 1340 stores joined CHAGEE's Night Clean Project, supporting 18,000 store partners complete end-of-day operations on schedule.
