In light of recent discussions on cultural sensitivity and representation in the bubble tea industry, Gong cha is proud to be included in Inc. Magazine’s latest article highlighting the importance of timing, sensitivity, and intention when bringing culturally rooted products like boba to market. “It’s crucial to approach the category with a respect for, and understanding of, where boba came from—do your research, and get to know the culture and history,” says Geoff Henry, President of Gong cha Americas on advice for entrepreneurs looking to market a product like boba. Thank you, Alyssa Khan & Inc. Magazine, for including Gong cha in this important discussion. https://lnkd.in/eKgWH37d
