...A FEW years ago, Bryan Loo was on holiday in Taiwan when he stumbled upon Chatime and decided to take up the master franchise for Malaysia.   After more than three years, and with 110 Chatime outlets in Malaysia now, Loo admits that he initially did not want to grow the brand in the country through franchising.   He is not a big believer in the franchise model, preferring to own all the Chatime Malaysia outlets if he could. But out of necessity, he had to compromise.   Loo’s father had given him RM500,000 to kick-start the business. That amount could only fund one outlet. After opening his first outlet at Pavilion in Kuala Lumpur, he came up with a strategy to make the best of his financial limitations.   “My strategy was to sell two franchises so that I could get enough investment to open one direct outlet. So I did that until I achieved five direct outlets that generated enough cash flow for me to sustain my expansion,” he explains.   According to Loo, a standard Chatime outlet’s startup cost could go up to RM500,000, but this depends on the store’s size and location as rent deposit and renovations are a big part of the initial investment.   In the early days, most Chatime outlets broke even after six months of operation, but now it takes about one to two years. This is because there are more outlets around town as well as a myriad of competitors.   Today, the company doesn’t offer any more franchising opportunities in Malaysia. As soon as Loo had enough cash flow to sustain...

...| | | | | | |   | In May, news of maleic acid contamination in the tapioca pearls used in bubble tea (also called boba tea or 珍珠奶茶) spread to Malaysia. Several bubble tea chains published statements through press releases and Facebook stating that their products are free of the substance. However, in response the Malaysian Healthy Ministry banned eleven Taiwanese food products suspected of containing the chemical substance. Discussions about the side effects from the chewy pearls broke out among netizens.  This was not the first time that the bubble tea business, originating 30 years ago in Taiwan, has been challenged that their tapioca pearls contain harmful substances. We wrote about the bubble tea craze last year, and mentioned the first scare of finding a carcinogen, diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), in the chewy black pearls. After the ban on maleic acid contamination in June, why are we still seeing the bubbles lurking in our cold tea? Is our fear about kidney failure real? We decided to get to the bottom of this. Are we safe now? It is common for us to take action immediately after hearing news about what can kill us. However, let’s look into it with a little more detail based on a very simple reason: Bubble tea has been in the market for 30 years. If the chewy balls are going to cause cancer or kidney failure, wouldn’t there be a lot of casualties by now?  We remember how popular they were in pasar malam (night market) 20 years ago when...
