I'm not really interested in opening a Boba Tea Shop but this man now his shit and you can take those advice and apply them to so many business ideas. Great video and very educational!
Hello, I’m really grateful for the video. Because I live in Haiti and there’s no Boba Shop , and I was scared to create it. But thx to you I’m gonna start right now. New project 2024 😍😍😍😍
My friend who worked as a bubble tea manager asked me for money because he wanted to open his own place I gave him enough money that I would own 80% and he only 20%. He’s doing so good at running the shop that we make 500,000$ in sales per year before expenses , fees and taxes. In the end I get to keep around 180,000$ per year and I never even go in.
This is golden! I believe that the African and Middle Eastern demographic could jump on the Bubble Tea train, we looove milk tea too. Vegan milk and good tea sorts are a no-brainer, so creating a small selection of high quality pearls and an efficient serving system is the challenge for me.. challenge accepted! Peace from Denmark
@@WilsonKLee I haven't found any such shop anywhere, nobody's connected the dots yet, but it makes sense to me growing up with all those nationalities..
FWIW: I am black (Jamaican-American) living in Houston, TX. I see a lot of people who look like me in the bubble tea spots I frequent. Rewards programs really help with customer retention, too!
Thank you for making this video! I'm planning to open up a boba shop later this year and your advice really helped. Definitely will check out your masterclass!
Wilson this is awesome advice and wish I had this kind of information available 8+ years ago. You hit on a lot of great points in setting up boba shop. Great advice and all the best.
Funny thing is that the reason why I started this channel is because I wished i had this info when I first started my first food business 5 years ago!! But there wasn't anyone around to guide me or tell me what to do + what to look out for. Made me waste a TON of money and time :( So this is a channel just about all I've learned and my mistakes haha
Key to making a bubble tea shop 1. Make a lot of friends 2. Get funding to build bubble tea shop 3. Create a warm & welcoming environment/loungy vibes 4. continue making friends. 5. Create a menu & recipe with maybe a few snacks to go with boba 6. Make sure all friends know you are opening a boba tea shop, visit them be friends with them make friends with their friends & invite them all.... 7. On opening invite friends and tell them to bring their friends...simple bro...
Hi there! It's amazingly weird how I've stumbled across your channel, but really glad I did. I'm already picking up a few things with just a few minutes in, but this is definitely right up my alley, it makes me more confident to open a bubble tea business now. Coming from a hospitality background it's really great to see other people's ideas, especially those who have been successful in it. Thanks for sharing & look forward to viewing your other videos too, you have many more interesting contents!
This video carries a gold of knowledge and tips. I don't subsribe to the channels so easily, but you won this subscription from me by the great content you have put in here. Thanks
I really do want to start up a bubble tea business in my local town. There we don't have a a single Bubble tea Rivals near me. Thought the closest one is a City down south but that's like 30 minutes away. Im hoping really to sell for the locals and most importantly the local Schools. The only rivals really are Coffee shops like Costa or Cafe Nero
Thanks, Wilson - I'm just starting to explore the possibility of my 10 year dream becoming a reality, and your style of succinctly summarizing the essentials is sure to help me make up for lost time. Much Appreciated!
Hi Mr.Wilson. I just want to thank you for all your valuable videos. With all your teaching, I will definitely open a bubble tea shop franchise this year or in 2022.
Yes! And thank you for sharing your knowledge. We want to start our boba and smoothie cafe with BBQ and and variety of sweet potato snacks and treats and your channel is so helpful.
I want to start a bubble tea shop with bubble waffles as well. Would love more help/advice! :) This video, and all of your others, have been super helpful!!! THANKS!!
definitely been wanting to open a manga cafe in my town, and bubble tea would be a definite point as well. We dont really have many places in my town for this and im looking into it so thank you :))
Glad that I came across this video. Very informative and clarified alot for me. Seems like I'am on the right track for opening up a bubble tea/bubble waffle shop 😄
Great video. Thank you for making this video. Can you please let me know or make a video about where we can buy the products like tapioca balls and the equipment needed ?
That's interesting! Is there a reason why there isn't a shop there? Would be good to do some research and asking around the interest and demand for the product first
Thanks for the video. How about the business license? What special license(food processing, etc) do I need to make bubble tea and sell? And inspection?
So glad to hear this. I would like to open my own bubble tea, but I don’t know about the system how to open, so do you the team or programs that can help for the new owners?
Thank you for this video, this helped me a lot on the basic knowledge. The only thing I can't agree with you is McDonald's food doesn't always taste the same in different country. And usually, they taste much better than the McDonald's in Unite States lol
Great content, thank you for this video. I am a restaurateur and I’m looking to add boba to my menu, I am struggling with sourcing of the product and coming up with the product cost. Can you please suggest sources and break down the cost in today’s market? I already have 4 locations running that I need boba tea in.
Amazing video thank you for sharing! I really want to open a bubble tea shop, but I've been searching for bubble tea beverage preparation courses near me or online and I'm having so much trouble with this. How do business owners with no experience learn? Took a course or just learned with videos and placed them on the menu? I would really like some guidance on this. Im located in miami Fl and so far ive tried volunteering places and reading books but whats the best route?
Hi Wilson! I want to open a bubble tea shop in my city. I was wondering if you could share more about where to get resources on recipes and ingredient sourcing? I've considered franchising because I didn't really grow up with bubble tea and only have it a few times a year when traveling to larger cities. I'm not confident in creating recipes but I have begun doing market research on typical menu items and offerings. Though my city has never really had any true bubble tea shops, with more young people moving into my city I see a gap in the market to capitalize on. Looking forward to your response! Thanks!
Hello Wilson, thank you very much for your information. I am planning to open my first boba tea shop soon. My place is very close to the university, walking distance . What serving base should I be more focus for younger group customers? What else should I pair with Boba drinks ? Thank you very much . Have a good day .
I'm really wanting to start a cat café which will feature boba, a small bakery, and coffee. Thank you for your information, it's helping me a lot as I don't have much. The area I'm in is highly compatible with this idea. Any other advice you could give me would be great!
Hi Wilson thank you for all your informations and videos I’m leaving in UAE I’m planning to open a kiosk for a bubble tea inside mall . Please where is the best place to source the ingredients? What type of equipment,machine that I need? And there is any course that I can take for quality recipes to create my menu? I will appreciate your help and guidance 🙏
Mr. Wilson Thank you It has always been my dream to start a business. Can you share some tips about starting a mobile shop like a truck or minivan setup.
Want to dive in this business. Living in Southern California you can find a boba shop pretty much on every corner. Im back living in my home State MI and you can not find one unless you live in a big metropolitan cities like Detroit, Lansing, and Grand Rapids and even there its hard to find a quality craving boba shop. The few that I visited in near by cities where I live are completely watered down. Count me in.
Hi Wilson, thank you so much for your information.. But one thing, if we set up a boba stall in the market, do we have a space to wash our shakers and mixtures as we won't be using same shakers and mixtures for different flavours..🤔🤔
I want to open a bubble tea cafe that's simultaneously a thrift store BECAUSE OF THE SIMS 4 HIGH SCHOOL YEARS LMAOOOOO For real, though: This video is brilliant, thank you!!
This is great info! I am currently drafting my business idea to open a boba shop hopefully by 2022. I already know the concept just need resources on how to execute them.
Hi wilson thank you so much for the amazing video, i been wanted to open bubble tea shop, my question is did you teach people how to make bubble tea? Because I’m thinking top have my own brand
Hi Wilson….my name is Ama, I have to say that I love your videos very much it’s very helpful. I have been looking into opening a bubble tea business but I don’t know where to start. I’m looking into opening a booth in Africa.
I opened a boba shop last year. Yesterday was our first year. Wondering what do you do during cold season?? We dropped 35% sales when cold season hit us.
I’m an Asian who move to live in France and bubble tea is a hit in Asian town in Paris. My dream is to open one bubble tea shop in a tourist area outside Paris, but I still afraid that this drink is too new for the French.
I remember seeing a Korean restaurant that opened up in a smaller city in Europe. It was well received and a video was made on it by the Eater. Definitely there is a risk as timing may not be right for the demographic yet - but surveying and starting small to test out the market would be what I recommend. Best of luck Boran!
I just watch because I love boba and I like to start an imaginary boba shop where I can drink all day every day 😎
Same here! 😄
I'm not really interested in opening a Boba Tea Shop but this man now his shit and you can take those advice and apply them to so many business ideas. Great video and very educational!
Thanks Daniel!
Right up my alley. My store Crepe n Cream is scheduled to open June 2021 serving Boba, Coffee drinks, Crepes and sandwiches. As always, great content
Wow! That is coming up ;) love the name of the shop!
Sounds awesome!!! Congratulations
You want to share your knowledge? Very curious
Oooo that sounds delicious. Where’s the store located? If it’s in NY I will come
Did you open your store? How is it going?
Hello, I’m really grateful for the video. Because I live in Haiti and there’s no Boba Shop , and I was scared to create it. But thx to you I’m gonna start right now.
New project 2024 😍😍😍😍
Haiti! 🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹
How did it go?
My friend who worked as a bubble tea manager asked me for money because he wanted to open his own place I gave him enough money that I would own 80% and he only 20%. He’s doing so good at running the shop that we make 500,000$ in sales per year before expenses , fees and taxes. In the end I get to keep around 180,000$ per year and I never even go in.
How much did you invest?
Who is ur supplier?

Vegan milk and good tea sorts are a no-brainer, so creating a small selection of high quality pearls and an efficient serving system is the challenge for me.. challenge accepted!

Definitely want to test out that hypothesis. Is there a spot already catering to that demographic?
@@WilsonKLee I haven't found any such shop anywhere, nobody's connected the dots yet, but it makes sense to me growing up with all those nationalities..
Middle easterns really love boba and milk tea actually. Cuz of their Asian friends from college.
FWIW: I am black (Jamaican-American) living in Houston, TX. I see a lot of people who look like me in the bubble tea spots I frequent. Rewards programs really help with customer retention, too!
@@WilsonKLee yes there is bubee in UAE it's always so crowded, and been consistently popular for 2 years now. He was right about this
Hello, I am glad I came across your channel. I am in Ghana and decided to start a Boba tea restaurant on a college campus.

this idea just popped in my head a few weeks ago. i really wanna do it bc in my home country there’s no boba shop (we’re only 2 mill people)
That's interesting! Is there a reason why there isn't a shop there? Would be good to do some research and asking around the interest and demand for the product first
Yes I want to start a shop with my kids!
Great I just convert my actual nutrition club into boba Tea shop. It's amazing.
Can you provide some detail on where to buy Bubble tea equipments and who would install them? Thanks
I attended a online franchise seminar based in Canada which was interesting, only that I live in USA for now.
Great video. Are there any links recommended to shop for the equipment? Much appreciated. Thanks.
I’m in the learning path to opening my boba Business.
Same here
Nice! What kind of Boba shop are you thinking of?

I want to start one, yes. I saw a bubble tea shop in Merida, Yucatan Mexico.
I haven’t ever even talked to anyone about starting a boba shop, but yo yt knows haha thank you for this video!!
They can sense it :)
I had a concept to fuse traditional boba with south Asian and Indian flavors as it’s very popular among south Asian and Indian areas in my communities
Hello Wilson I was just wondering for supplies from vendors for items In bulk where would you recommend getting them from/at?
I'm really wanting to start a cat café which will feature boba, a small bakery, and coffee. Thank you for your information, it's helping me a lot as I don't have much. The area I'm in is highly compatible with this idea. Any other advice you could give me would be great!
Hi Wilson, do you get a franchise or you come up with your own brand?
Hi Wilson thank you for all your informations and videos I’m leaving in UAE I’m planning to open a kiosk for a bubble tea inside mall .
Please where is the best place to source the ingredients? What type of equipment,machine that I need?
And there is any course that I can take for quality recipes to create my menu?
I will appreciate your help and guidance 🙏
Thank you so much; i really have found this video to be very helpfull
Mr. Wilson Thank you It has always been my dream to start a business. Can you share some tips about starting a mobile shop like a truck or minivan setup.
What are the best ways to start crafting the recipes? Is there general recipes online I can follow as a guide?
Want to dive in this business. Living in Southern California you can find a boba shop pretty much on every corner. Im back living in my home State MI and you can not find one unless you live in a big metropolitan cities like Detroit, Lansing, and Grand Rapids and even there its hard to find a quality craving boba shop. The few that I visited in near by cities where I live are completely watered down. Count me in.
Hi Wilson! Thank you for such an informative video! My biggest question is how to come up with the recipes for the various drinks?
I can help with that. Let me know what you need and your location.
Hi Wilson, thank you so much for your information.. But one thing, if we set up a boba stall in the market, do we have a space to wash our shakers and mixtures as we won't be using same shakers and mixtures for different flavours..🤔🤔
I own a Neapolitan pizza shop and I am going to add Bubble tea this month.
Is it something that is in demand in your area and customers? I wouldn't add it unless that is the case.
Hi Wilson awesome info. Do you have a video on finding suppliers and places to buy equipment
I want to open a bubble tea cafe that's simultaneously a thrift store BECAUSE OF THE SIMS 4 HIGH SCHOOL YEARS LMAOOOOO
For real, though: This video is brilliant, thank you!!
Really good video, very educational, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I want to start a bubble tea shop. You said a franchise is 40,000 - 60,000 but when I looked it is 100,000 - 200,000.
This is great info! I am currently drafting my business idea to open a boba shop hopefully by 2022. I already know the concept just need resources on how to execute them.
best of luck!
Hi I saw your comment about starting a boba tea shop and I wanted to connect with you to see if you’re looking for investors.

Do you also help in setting up a new bubble tea shop from scratch?
Thank u for this video. I'm planning to put up bubble tea business on summer.Pls send me details how to start?

Hi Wilson! Do you know how they shoot the boba pearls on top of the milk tea drink? Please make a vlog about it 🙏🏻
You are very realistic
I opened a boba shop last year. Yesterday was our first year. Wondering what do you do during cold season?? We dropped 35% sales when cold season hit us.
sell hot tea
@@jTacticsBeats we do sell hot tea and coffee doesn’t help.
do you sell desserts? i would come for sweet treats in cold season
