What is Heytea?
The story of Heytea’s founding
The headquarter of Heytea is located in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province. Its predecessor, Royaltea, was established in 2012 and after entering the Shanghai market in 2017, it became famous with a new generation of Chinese bubble tea drinks. Targeting of young people on social media is greatly responsible for Heytea’s fame, and subsequently, the love for its tea products. In the past, tea was primarily consumed by the elderly, but Heytea has successfully introduced bubble tea to the young market through “inspiration, zen, and design”.
The extraordinary Heytea
1.There is no perfect product
Heytea launches different creative products every season, and continuous innovation is the foundation of their brand. Room for perfection does not fit this forever changing fast-paced concept as the test of time is absent, which makes product comparisons nearly impossible. The pursuit of Heytea is not product perfection for a fixed range, but rather, short lived brilliant ideas that continue to flow.
2.Cool, Zen, Inspirational & Design Oriented
In the past, you may have thought that people who drink tea are behind the times. In response to this, Heytea presents the packaging of drinks in transparent cups, and you can easily see the contents. Consumers share tea on the Internet, which is Heytea’s best publicity channel. The storefront is based on a buddhist theme, and the common points of each city and tea are transformed into a facade with a sense of design.
3.Bring Chinese tea to the world
Heytea’s reserve of tea products is dozens the amount of existing products. Heytea has developed 48 new products in just one year. This is a figure that other brands of bubble tea beverages can’t keep up with. And such a model makes everyone keep a high degree of attention to Heytea at any time, and has been expanding branch locations. At present, Heytea has expanded its store to Hong Kong and Singapore, and will enter the Japanese market in the near future.
4.Daydream plan, storefront space in collaboration with designers
Do you dare to dream? As modern young people, we are taught to dare to dream. Heytea’s dream is to develop the “Heytea Day Dreamer Project” through the “third space” of the storefront, and to collaborate with different artists from all over the world, to create unique designs for each individual store.
