According to its official website, CoCo Fresh Tea and Juice was founded at Tamsui, Taiwan in 1997. But the brand would quickly grow and make its way across the world. It now has over 4,000 stores all over the world, not just in Taiwan but also in places like Japan, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom, Canada, USA, and the Philippines.

Coco Fresh Tea & Juice already has a number of branches in Luzon and Visayas, but Mindanao branches are still coming soon. But many business-minded folks are wondering whether the brand is open for franchise.
