Expansion of Distribution Network in Latin America

Bubble tea is rapidly gaining popularity across Latin America. From restaurants and cafés to dessert shops and ice cream chains, more businesses are looking to add this trending beverage to their menus.

However, most Latin American markets still lack stable local distributors. In many cases, sourcing options are limited to suppliers based in the United States. While some countries can access these channels more easily, others face significant logistical challenges and high shipping costs.

To address these gaps, we are actively expanding our distribution network in Latin America and are seeking strategic partners with strong local operational capabilities to build a more efficient regional supply structure.

This opportunity is exclusively for companies with proven experience in distribution and import operations.

Market Context

In many Latin American countries, the bubble tea market is still in an early stage of development, with several clear structural characteristics:

• Limited and fragmented local supply
• Dependence on U.S.-based suppliers
• High cost structures due to multiple intermediaries
• Restricted access to product variety and customization

These conditions create inefficiencies within the supply chain that can be significantly improved through direct sourcing from Taiwan.

Strategic Partner Profile

We are looking for companies or distributors with established operational capabilities in their local markets:

Import & International Trade Experience

Proven experience in managing import processes, including international logistics, documentation, and shipment coordination.

Local Warehousing Infrastructure

Ability to receive, store, and distribute inventory efficiently (reference: 20-foot container capacity).

Active Commercial Network

An existing customer base in sectors such as:

• Food & Beverage
• Café chains
• Horeca distribution
• Specialized retail

This is critical — we are seeking partners with direct market access, not startups building from scratch.

Local Market Knowledge

Understanding of pricing structures, distribution channels, and consumer behavior within the local market.

Market Development Capability

A strategic mindset focused on long-term growth rather than short-term transactions.

Value Proposition

Partnering with Fokus enables optimization of your supply chain through a direct-from-origin model:

• Direct access to production in Taiwan
• Improved supply stability
• Reduced reliance on intermediaries
• Flexibility in product portfolio development and customization

This model allows distributors not only to improve margins but also to build a sustainable competitive position in markets where supply is still limited.

Collaboration Model

Our strategy focuses on long-term market development rather than short-term operations.

The model includes:

• Direct manufacturer–distributor relationship
• Private label / OEM development opportunities
• Territory allocation based on operational capability
• Commercial expansion support tailored to market needs

Long-Term Perspective

The bubble tea market in Latin America shows strong growth potential compared to more mature regions.

Distributors who establish their infrastructure at this stage will gain clear advantages in:

• Market penetration
• Customer portfolio development
• Positioning as a primary supplier in their region

If your company has experience in import operations, local infrastructure, and an active commercial network, we welcome the opportunity to explore potential collaboration.
