Price increases resist costs and are expected to increase profits in 2022
Due to the rise of raw materials, the company raised the price of brewing milk tea (including classic series and good material series) by 2% – 8%. The new price will be implemented according to the price adjustment notice of each product from February 1, 2022. The price increase will stimulate dealers to prepare goods after the Spring Festival. We expect that the company will still have corresponding expenses to spend the price increase stage in the peak brewing season.
