Our Story

From a wooden cart
to a global tea movement.

Eight years. 160+ stores. 100M+ cups served. Three countries. Phúc Tea is one of South-East Asia's most loved beverage chains — and the international brand HappiTea is how we're sharing it with the world.

The Vision

Aspire to be the leading milk tea brand from Vietnam to the world.

Every store we open — in Hồ Chí Minh, Manila, Hyderabad — carries the same craft, the same recipes, the same obsession with quality.

Our Mission

To bring happiness and human connection through innovative, quality products and outstanding customer experiences.
