Kiosks to Cups: Gong cha's Self-Service Success Story

Gong cha, a global bubble tea chain with nearly 2,200 locations across 24 countries, has captivated Gen Z consumers via a blend of human connection and technology, including kiosks and mobile ordering allowing them to explore drink options. Over half of the brand's sales came through the kiosks in the first half of 2024, a fact that Rebecca Kahn, Gong cha's franchise business leader, will discuss. She'll delve into the chain's use of self-service kiosks and how personalized experiences attract customers, drive sales and build brand loyalty.
