InvestHK promotes Hong Kong as strategic gateway for African enterprises to expand in Asia

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 May 2026 – Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK) is set to broaden its strategic engagement with the African continent as Associate Director-General of Investment Promotion Ms Loretta Lee today (May 10) embarks on an eight-day visit to Johannesburg, South Africa, and Kigali, Rwanda. The mission aims to strengthen economic ties with African economies and promote Hong Kong as the premier springboard for African enterprises to tap into the Chinese Mainland and Asia-Pacific markets.

InvestHK promotes Hong Kong as strategic gateway for African enterprises to expand in Asia

Ms Lee said, “Africa holds a strategic position in the Global South, representing a vital engine of growth in an era of global economic uncertainty. Interconnectivity is the key to unlocking this potential, and Hong Kong plays a strategic role in linking capital, talent, and innovation and technology between Africa, the Chinese Mainland, and international markets to drive high-quality, multilateral growth. As the Government’s arm for both inward investment and Chinese Mainland enterprises aiming to go global, InvestHK facilitates two-way investment through strategic market insights, extensive global access, targeted promotion and policy facilitation. ”

Ms Lee will visit Johannesburg from May 10 to 13 to meet with representatives from the local chambers, financial institutions, banks, fintech interests, and business and professional services sectors. Extending her mission to Kigali, Rwanda, from May 13, Ms Lee will represent InvestHK at the Africa CEO Forum to drive high-level exchanges with C-suite executives from the continent’s leading multinationals.

African enterprises establishing a presence in Hong Kong can benefit from a globally recognised common law system and Asia’s most competitive tax regime. Most recently, Hong Kong has further sharpened its competitive edge by announcing a halve in the profits tax to 8.25 per cent from the standard 16.5 per cent for qualifying physical commodity traders. By combining this fiscal incentive with the city’s status as the world’s pre-eminent offshore Renminbi hub, Hong Kong offers African commodities exporters a high-liquidity, efficient gateway to Asian markets.

In line with the advancement of the National 15th Five-Year Plan, Hong Kong is leveraging its status as a “super connector” and “super value-adder” to support national development. As China-Africa economic relations pivot towards high-value trade and investment, Hong Kong is uniquely positioned to accelerate two-way capital flows – spurring growth across finance, shipping, and innovation and technology.

Citing the South African national rugby team’s recent first-ever title at the Hong Kong Sevens, Ms Lee emphasised that such vibrant people-to-people connections are not merely symbolic, but serve as a meaningful foundation for driving bilateral economic connection.

SNP advances its AI capabilities for unstructured data

  • Unstructured data represents around 80% of the enterprise data footprint and remains largely inaccessible to traditional transformation tools
  • SNP and New York based Structify establish joint venture company Oros Data LLC, focused on AI-enabled processing of unstructured data at scale
  • The new solution extends SNP’s Kyano® platform to process unstructured data in M&A transactions, enabling faster time to value, reduced operational and compliance risk, and better-informed decisions

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 May 2026 – SNP SE, a leading provider of software for AI-enabled digital transformation, automated data migration, and data management in the SAP environment, has established a joint venture with Structify, a New York based AI-native Services-as- Software company that develops platform-based solutions for extracting, contextualizing, and processing enterprise data. The new entity, Oros Data LLC, is jointly owned by the partners and focuses on the development and application of AI-based solutions for processing large volumes of unstructured enterprise data.

Together, SNP and Structify aim to bring AI-enabled data processing into the core of SAP transformation projects. According to industry analysts, unstructured data accounts for around 80% of enterprise information. This includes critical data such as contracts, sensitive HR records, IT-related documents, or customer complaints, which are often not readily accessible or processable. In the context of M&A transactions, insufficient handling of this data can create significant costs as well as operational and compliance risks for both buyers and sellers. In a first step, SNP integrates these capabilities into its Kyano platform particularly for M&A scenarios.

“Improper processing of unstructured data greatly increases the risks in M&A and can erode as much as 10% of the deal value. Customers have chosen SNP over the last 30 years to accelerate and de-risk their most critical transactions. We are excited to deliver this new AI-enabled capability based on our decades of experience to further streamline and safeguard our customers’ M&A,” says Steele Arbeeny, CTO of SNP North America.

“Unstructured data represents a significant share of the information required to run a business. Our goal is to make this data usable in M&A transactions while ensuring that sensitive information such as trade secrets and personal data is protected,” comments Structify CEO Alex Reichenbach. “This collaboration provides a framework to apply these capabilities in large-scale transformation projects.”

Rhenus Extends Capabilities in Specialized Warehousing in Thailand with new Dangerous Goods Warehouse in Bangkok

  • The new warehouse enhances the company’s footprint in providing companies support in specialized goods logistics
  • The addition is in line with the company’s plans in Asia Pacific to better support present and future storage needs for general commodities and specialized goods
BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 May 2026 – Rhenus Group, a leading global logistics provider, has opened a new dangerous goods warehouse in Bangkok, Thailand. Strategically located near key ports, and next to its current KM19 warehouse in Bangna Trad, the new warehouse aims to strengthen its capabilities in Thailand, as well as the region, in specialized warehousing services.

Thailand’s warehousing market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7% from 2023 to 2028. This is primarily due to the expansion of the e-commerce sector, increasing foreign direct investment in manufacturing, and the rising demand for third-party logistics services. The development of specialized warehousing is also gaining traction due to growing demand for temperature-sensitive and high-value goods.

The 5,817 sqm purpose-built Dangerous Goods compliant facility connects conveniently to key logistics infrastructure and its existing KM19 warehouse, optimizing operational efficiency for its customers. The warehouse will open in phases from now onwards, to support companies with a mix of dangerous and non-dangerous goods cargo, enabling integrated storage and handling within one site while maintaining clear segregation and compliance requirements. Key features of the warehouse include 90-minute fire-rated walls and doors, explosion-proof electrical components, fire pumps and sprinklers rated for dangerous goods and explosion-proof ventilation.

Marcus Fornell, Regional Head of Rhenus APAC Warehousing Solutions, said, “As more manufacturing businesses incorporate the China+1 strategy and increase capabilities in Southeast Asia, Rhenus is scaling up its presence in this region to support the varied storage needs – from general to specialized manufacturing industries’ needs. As one of our regional hubs, we will continue to invest in Thailand with more flexible resource allocation solutions.”

Rhenus in Thailand

Established in 1994 and with 14 locations across Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Khon Kaen, Rhenus offers services across a large variety of industries such as consumer retail, high-tech, industrial, agricultural, chemical, automotive, fashion, e-commerce, life sciences & healthcare, aviation and manufacturing industries. On top of its warehousing capabilities, various services are also available including air, ocean and road freight, project logistics, on-board courier and 24-hour NFO (next flight out) services.

“The new facility enhances our ability to provide fully integrated warehousing solutions for customers with both DG and non-DG requirements. Positioned within our KM19 main site, the key logistics hub in Thailand, we can leverage on shared resources, optimize costs, and deliver operational flexibility while maintaining the highest safety and compliance standards. This also enables us to offer scalable and efficient solutions which align with customers’ evolving supply chain needs,” said Pakpoom Chaokaweepong, General Manager – Warehousing Solution Operations, Rhenus Thailand.
Details of the new warehouse:
Address: 601 Moo 15, Bang Sao Thong Sub-District, Bang Sao Thong District, Samut Prakarn Province 10570.

Morinaga Introduces Mori-Mama, Reflecting an Advanced, More Holistic Approach to Maternal Nutrition

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 May 2026 – Morinaga Milk Industry Co., Ltd. (Morinaga), a Japan-based nutrition company and Japan’s leading dairy producer, today launched its maternal milk, Mori-Mama, an advanced maternal product developed to support women from preconception through pregnancy and lactation.

With over a century of expertise in nutritional science, Morinaga has long focused on providing essential nutrition across different life stages. The introduction of Mori-Mama reflects a broader shift in maternal and early life nutrition — one that is increasingly centred not only on nutrient intake, but on how effectively nutrients are absorbed and utilised by the body.

This shift comes amid ongoing nutritional challenges. In Malaysia, anaemia during pregnancy remains a notable concern, with approximately 28.8% of pregnant women affected as of 2023, according to World Bank data. Studies have also shown that prevalence can range widely from around 19% to over 50%, underscoring the variability in maternal nutritional status.

This shift is particularly relevant during pregnancy, where nutritional demands are heightened and tolerance to certain supplements can vary. Iron deficiency remains one of the most common contributing factors, while increasing attention is being placed on how well nutrients are tolerated — particularly as some women experience discomfort with conventional supplementation. As a result, there is growing emphasis on approaches that support both efficacy and overall maternal experience.

Mori-Mama was developed in response to these evolving needs, bringing together key nutrients with functional ingredients such as lactoferrin — an iron-binding protein naturally found in high amount in breast milk alongside a synbiotic blend of Bifidobacterium longum BB536 and FOS (prebiotic fibre), supporting both iron absorption and gut health.

“Maternal nutrition today is being viewed through a more holistic lens, with greater awareness of how the body responds to what is consumed,” said Ms. Brenda Liew, Managing Director, OZ Marketing. “This is shaping the way nutritional solutions are developed, with a stronger focus on absorption, tolerance and overall well-being.”

Rather than segmenting support across different stages, Mori-Mama is positioned as a single, continuous formulation, aligning with the needs of women seeking more streamlined and practical approaches to nutrition from preparing for pregnancy through to motherhood.

As expectations around maternal health continue to shift, there is increasing recognition that nutritional support must begin earlier and extend further — from pre-conception through to pregnancy and beyond. The introduction of Mori-Mama reflects a more deliberate move towards solutions that address this continuum, supporting women in a way that is both relevant and responsive to their real experiences.

About Morinaga Milk Industry Co., Ltd.

Morinaga is one of the leading dairy product companies in Japan with a century of history harnessing the nutritional properties of dairy products and functional ingredients.

About Bifidobacterium longum BB536 Probiotic

Morinaga is also a key global probiotics manufacturer that excels in innovative technology and offers a premium line of probiotics and functional ingredients worldwide. Since the 1960s, Morinaga has been engaged in research on the safety, functional health benefits, and mechanisms of action of probiotic bifidobacteria to better understand their role in maintaining human health.

About Lactoferrin

Present in most exocrine secretions such as breast milk and saliva of humans and other mammals, lactoferrin is a component with a wide range of physiological functions. The high amount of lactoferrin found in human breast milk, especially in colostrum, is considered to offer
important and protective benefits to newborns.
Paying high attention to the fact that lactoferrin is highly abundant in colostrum, Morinaga has been focusing its research efforts on lactoferrin over the long term to develop infant formula that closely resembles breast milk. Since its initial publication of a research paper on lactoferrin in 1963, Morinaga has been reporting its benefits through academic forums, conferences and publications.

Vinpearl Partners With Three Leading Indian Travel Companies, Unlocking Access To A 1.47 Billion-Person Market

MUMBAI, INDIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 9 May 2026 – Vinpearl Joint Stock Company has signed Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) with Thomas Cook India, SOTC Travel, and MakeMyTrip, three of India’s leading travel and tourism companies. The strategic partnerships are aimed at directly and comprehensively reaching all customer segments, helping position Vietnam as a “preferred destination” in the world’s most populous country.

The agreements were signed at the Vietnam–India Business Forum, held as part of the State visit of General Secretary and President To Lam to India, in the presence of General Secretary and President To Lam and Maharashtra Chief Minister Shri Devendra Fadnavis.

The partnerships are expected to open direct access channels to all customer segments, stimulate travel demand and experiential tourism, and ultimately position Vietnam as a “preferred destination” for India’s 1.47 billion people.

Representing India are three of the country’s most influential and trusted travel distribution channels: Thomas Cook India, SOTC Travel, and MakeMyTrip. Thomas Cook India has strong expertise in group travel, corporate travel, and large-scale MICE tourism. SOTC Travel is well known for family vacations, group tours, and mid- to high-end leisure travel. Meanwhile, MakeMyTrip, India’s leading online travel platform, has a strong advantage in reaching younger travelers, independent tourists, and digitally-driven booking behaviors.

Representing Vietnam is Vinpearl, the country’s leading hospitality, tourism, and entertainment brand, operating nearly 60 properties nationwide. Its diverse five-star “all-in-one” ecosystem offers accommodation, shopping, dining, entertainment, golf, and MICE services, making it particularly well-suited to the travel preferences of Indian visitors, including large group travel, multi-generational family vacations, and experience-rich holidays.

Through these partnerships, the parties aim to maximize each other’s strengths, enhance tourism development capabilities, and shape tailored travel products, gradually positioning Vietnam as a “preferred destination” for Indian travelers in the near future.

Speaking at the event, Ms. Ngo Thi Huong, CEO of Vinpearl, said: “India is one of the key markets in Vinpearl’s international expansion strategy. Through partnerships with leading industry players, we are not only broadening our market reach but also proactively developing products tailored to each customer segment. Vinpearl aims to strengthen its presence in the Indian market while contributing to positioning Vietnam as an attractive and distinctive destination on the global tourism map.”

Mr. Anubhav Bansal, Vice President of MakeMyTrip and representative of the three Indian partners, added: “Vinpearl operates one of the region’s leading integrated tourism and hospitality ecosystems, with a scale, product diversity, and destination experience portfolio that increasingly align with the preferences of Indian travelers. We believe Vinpearl is playing an important role in positioning Vietnam as an attractive destination for this market. Combined with the extensive distribution strengths of both sides, this partnership is expected to significantly boost Indian tourist arrivals to Vietnam in the coming years.”

India is currently the world’s most populous country, with 1.47 billion people. The country’s rapidly expanding middle class is driving a strong surge in demand for international travel.

Recognizing the strategic importance of the Indian market, Vinpearl has not only leveraged its scale and integrated “all-in-one” ecosystem but has also continuously developed specialized offerings for Indian travelers, including luxury wedding tourism, MICE travel, multi-generational family holidays, group trips, and couple getaways. In 2025, the number of Indian guests staying within the Vinpearl system surged by a record 402% year-on-year, followed by a further 335% increase during the first four months of this year compared to the same period last year.

The signing of MoUs with these three major market access partners marks the next step in Vinpearl’s strategy to sustainably grow its visitor base from the 1.47 billion-population Indian market, while also helping position Vietnam as a “preferred destination” for Indian travelers.

Hong Kong Momtrepreneurs’ Mother’s Day Flagship 2026 Concludes Successfully

Bringing Together Business Leaders and Paralympic Gold Medalist to Discuss the “Invisible Strength” of SEN Mothers and Full-Time Moms

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 9 May 2026 – Hong Kong registered charity Hong Kong Momtrepreneurs (HKM) successfully held its annual Mother’s Day flagship event yesterday. This year’s event, themed “The Invisible Strength: Nurturing Families, Building Futures” (堅毅雙翼:滋養家庭‧創建未來), brought together business leaders and a Paralympic gold medalist to recognise and celebrate the resilience of full-time mothers and mothers of children with special educational needs (SEN) – both within their families and in society at large.

About Hong Kong Momtrepreneurs and the Moms4Moms Fellowship Program

Since its establishment in 2018, Hong Kong Momtrepreneurs has been committed to encouraging mothers to rediscover their value through lifelong learning and an entrepreneurial mindset. Its flagship programme, the Moms4Moms Fellowship Program, aims to help mothers transform their “invisible labour” into socially recognised capabilities – combining entrepreneurial knowledge with practical skills, so that mothers can pursue their dreams while caring for their families.

Lena Wong, Founder of HKM, said: “The potential of full-time mothers has long been overlooked, leading to a hidden waste of talent. Through our Fellowship, we hope to take the soft skills and life experiences cultivated through motherhood, combine them with practical entrepreneurial knowledge and skills, and channel them back into society – creating a positive impact across different communities and levels.”

Annual Theme & Partner Support

This year’s theme focused on a marginalised group of mothers – especially SEN mothers who face multiple challenges. The event was supported by The Payment Cards Group as its lead supporting partner.

In her keynote address, Beatrice Tai, CEO of The Payment Cards Group, shared how the development of accessible payment technology can provide meaningful support to mom entrepreneurs:

“Mobile payments enable mothers to work from home, run online stores, or participate in markets. The application process is relatively simple, funds flow back quickly, and it also provides data analytics reports – allowing merchants to understand sales figures, customer profiles, and payment habits, and thus make more precise marketing strategies.”

Ms. Tai added: “AI and accessible payment technology are becoming a powerful ‘Invisible Strength’ for mom entrepreneurs – helping them close opportunity gaps and solve business pain points.”

Star Panel: Cross-Sector Guests Share Heartfelt Experiences

A highlight of the event was the themed panel discussion, where guests shared their insights on supporting mothers – from both personal and corporate perspectives:

  • Ho Yuenkei, BBS (Paris 2024 Paralympic Boccia Double Gold Medalist) – Shared a moving account of how her mother’s unconditional love, support, and acceptance shaped her childhood, enabling her to overcome obstacles and achieve greatness.
  • Olivia Wong (General Manager – Environmental & Social Responsibility, MTR Corporation) – Pointed out that flexible working hours offered by companies can effectively help mothers balance work with their children’s school schedules.
  • Lucia Ngan (Project Manager, Learning Bridge) – Shared how diverse daily activities can support SEN youth and their mothers in both learning and daily life.

Professional Judging Witnesses 12 Mothers’ Business Pitches

The event also hosted the Moms4Moms 2025/26 Graduation Ceremony. Twelve fellows from diverse backgrounds – including mothers of SEN children – delivered 60-second business pitches to a distinguished panel of judges. These graduates showcased the confidence they had regained through the programme, transforming their caregiving experiences into commercially viable plans. Their brilliance shone through.

Judging Panel:

  • Danny Lap Lee – Managing Partner, VCA Capital Limited
  • Prudence Wat – Human Resources Director, Cyberport Asia
  • Lisa Lam – Deputy Executive Director, HandsOn Hong Kong

Looking Ahead

Looking to the future, Lena Wong shared that Hong Kong Momtrepreneurs will continue to explore more diverse forms of support, guided by the real needs of the community – helping mothers realise their own value while caring for their families, and growing together.

Loved by locals. Strong consumer demand continues to drive high traffic across Jollibee Vietnam’s growing store network.

Jollibee Vietnam’s success reflects the brand’s steady growth over two decades, built through consistent execution and a strong connection with Vietnamese consumers. Since opening its first store in Ho Chi Minh City in 2005, Jollibee Vietnam has expanded to over 250 stores across more than 50 provinces and cities, establishing a broad national presence.

The expansion has been supported by a range of store formats—including mall-based, street-front, and delivery-oriented locations—allowing the brand to serve different consumer occasions across the country.

“Vietnam is a highly dynamic and competitive market, and our progress reflects our focus on understanding local consumers and executing well on the fundamentals,” said Ernesto Tanmantiong, Global President and CEO of Jollibee Group. “It also underscores the strength of combining a well-loved brand with deep local understanding and consistent execution, reinforcing our belief that long-term growth in international markets comes from staying relevant to consumers while building strong operating foundations.”

Strong local relevance

Jollibee Vietnam’s growth has been anchored on a clear understanding of local tastes and behaviors. Core products such as Chickenjoy fried chicken, Chili Chicken, and Jolly spaghetti continue to resonate with consumers, supported by a passion for superior taste and warm, joyful service that encourages repeat visits.

The brand has also maintained strong engagement with younger consumers through school and community-based activations, as well as digital platforms. In 2025, Jollibee Vietnam’s high school and university programs reached 676 schools and approximately 1.5 million students, while awarding more than 500 scholarships. Its 20th-anniversary concert, attended by over 15,000 people, further underscores the brand’s connection with the youth segment.

“We’re grateful to the Vietnamese consumers who continue to choose Jollibee and make us part of their everyday moments,” said Dennis Flores, EMEAA Region President. “This recognition belongs equally to our Jollibee Vietnam team, whose care for the customer and commitment to getting the fundamentals right have made this possible. As we move forward, we remain focused on delivering superior-tasting food and a consistently positive customer experience.”

Jollibee Vietnam’s performance has also been recognized by independent organizations. The brand was named the No. 1 most reputable F&B company in Vietnam by Vietnam Report and was awarded Restaurant Partner/Merchant of the Year 2025 by Grab Vietnam, reflecting its strong brand equity and market execution.

For the Jollibee Group, Vietnam reflects how its brands can grow in international markets through a consistent approach to local adaptation and disciplined execution. And as Jollibee Vietnam continues to grow, the milestone underscores how sustained performance is built over time through relevance, consistency, and trust.

Key Highlights:

  • No. 1 Chicken QSR in Southeast Asia: Jollibee ranked by Euromonitor International as the No. 1 Chicken Quick Service Restaurant in Southeast Asia, based on 2025 value sales (Consumer Foodservice 2026).
  • Scaled and expanding regional footprint: Operates 1,658 stores across Southeast Asia, including 317 outside the Philippines, with potential for expansion in priority regional growth markets.
  • Built on strong consumer relevance: Growth driven by localized product innovation, mainstream customer appeal, and a consistently strong guest experience, with average Google ratings above four stars across key markets.
  • Proven execution across diverse markets: Strong performance in the Philippines, Vietnam, Singapore, and Brunei, including recognition as the No. 1 Quick Service Restaurant brand in Vietnam and the No. 1 QSR by store network in Brunei, reflecting strong demand, accessibility, and market penetration.
  • Strengthens Jollibee Group’s international growth platform: Reinforces the Group’s capability to build and scale category‑leading restaurant brands globally through disciplined execution, strong fundamentals, and a deep understanding of local consumers.

MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Media OutReach Newswire – 8 May 2026 – Jollibee has been ranked as the No. 1 Chicken Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) in Southeast Asia, according to Euromonitor International, based on 2025 value sales in its Consumer Foodservice 2026 study*. The recognition places Jollibee at the forefront of the region’s chicken QSR category, underscoring the brand’s sustained growth and strong consumer demand across multiple Southeast Asian markets.

Chicken Quick Service Restaurant in Southeast Asia

Euromonitor International’s ranking is based on its Limited-Service Restaurant classification, which includes fast food and takeaway formats. The assessment draws on comprehensive research methods, including in-country research, store checks, trade interviews, and company analysis, to determine market size and competitive positioning across the region.

As of December 31, 2025, Jollibee operates 1,658 stores across Southeast Asia, anchored by its strong base in the Philippines and a growing footprint in Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, and Brunei. Outside the Philippines, the brand operates 317 stores in Southeast Asia, underscoring its potential for expansion in priority growth markets.

“Jollibee is well-positioned to scale significantly over time, supported by disciplined expansion and strong market fundamentals,” said Ernesto Tanmantiong, Global President & CEO, Jollibee Group. “With 317 stores across Southeast Asia outside the Philippines, we have a solid platform for continued expansion in this high-growth region.”

A Scalable Brand Built on Market Relevance

Across Southeast Asia, Jollibee has built broad market appeal by balancing menu localization with a consistent core brand experience. Markets such as Vietnam, Singapore, Brunei, and Malaysia demonstrate this strategy in action, combining signature items with locally resonant products and campaigns.

Customer feedback supports this approach. Jollibee stores in Vietnam, Singapore, and Brunei maintain Google ratings of at least four stars, with the brand’s overall average rating across key Southeast Asian markets consistently above four.

Signature products Chickenjoy and Jolly Spaghetti remain among the brand’s top-selling items across markets and continue to drive repeat visits and strong customer affinity.

Ongoing product innovation reinforces brand relevance. Recent launches such as Spicy Nuggets, Spicy Spaghetti, and the Pistachio Kunafa Sundae sit alongside market-specific offerings like Nasi Lemak Chickenjoy in Malaysia, demonstrating how Jollibee localizes while maintaining brand consistency.

The customer mix across these markets reflects strong mainstream appeal.

“There’s a common perception that Jollibee primarily serves Filipino customers outside the Philippines, but what we’re seeing on the ground is very different,” said Dennis Flores, President for the EMEAA Region. “In markets like Vietnam and Brunei, nearly all of our customers are locals, and in Singapore and Malaysia, locals make up most of our customer base. This tells us that great taste and a strong brand experience resonate beyond borders—it’s something consumers choose, regardless of culture.”

Strong Brand Equity Across Key Markets

In Vietnam, Jollibee was recently ranked the No. 1 Quick Service Restaurant by Euromonitor International despite not having the largest store network, underscoring the brand’s strong same-store performance, consumer preference, and ability to lead the market on value sales rather than by footprint alone. It has expanded to 250 stores across more than 50 provinces and cities.

In Singapore, Jollibee has strengthened consumer engagement through locally relevant brand moments, including campaigns aligned with major cultural events. The brand was previously recognized as the No. 1 Fast Food Brand in Customer Service by The Straits Times, based on a nationwide consumer survey.

In Brunei, Jollibee stands as the No. 1 Quick Service Restaurant by store network, reflecting strong accessibility and brand presence across the country.

Driving the Jollibee Group’s International Growth

Jollibee’s brand strength is further reinforced by global recognitions that underscore both equity and execution. The brand was named among the Top 5 Strongest Restaurant Brands Globally in Brand Finance’s Restaurants 25 ranking for 2026, earning an AAA brand strength rating that reflects strong consumer loyalty, consistency, and market relevance. This is complemented by recognition of product quality and taste in international publications, including a USA Today ranking of No. 1 Best Fast-Food Fried Chicken for two consecutive years.

For the Jollibee Group, the recognition reinforces Jollibee’s role as a key driver of international growth and highlights the Group’s capability to scale restaurant brands across diverse markets through strong fundamentals and execution discipline.

“This milestone underscores the strength of Jollibee as our flagship brand and our ability to build brands that connect across markets,” Tanmantiong said. “It reflects years of disciplined execution—deep consumer understanding, strong operating systems, and a growth strategy that balances relevance with consistency. As we expand further, we remain focused on building brands that can scale while staying meaningful to the customers we serve.”

As Jollibee continues to expand across Southeast Asia and other regions, the brand remains guided by the Group’s purpose of spreading joy through superior taste, delivering food and experiences that resonate across cultures while maintaining consistency at scale.

“This recognition reflects the dedication of our teams and franchisees across Southeast Asia who bring the Jollibee brand to life every day. Our growth is rooted in staying close to our customers, adapting to local tastes while consistently delivering the core favorites and experience people associate with Jollibee. We’re grateful for the trust of our customers and remain focused on strengthening the brand across the region,” Tanmantiong added.
