Lotte Department Store is set to open Bacha Coffee's first brick-and-mortar store in South Korea this year. This comes after the company secured a local franchise and exclusive distribution rights for the luxury coffee brand.
According to The Korea Economic Daily, Bacha Coffee uses pure Arabica beans that have been sourced from 35 countries around the world. The pureness of its coffee products made the brand well-known, so its stores have become one of many travelers' must-visit places when traveling overseas.
Arrival in South Korea
Lotte Department Store has become the official distributor of Bacha Coffee in South Korea so that the products will be readily available for Korean customers. After a year and a half of discussions, the department store chain got the franchise and distribution rights for the brand.
Lotte plans to open the first store in July and has chosen the location of Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. To prepare for Bacha Coffee's official landing in the country, Lotte will put up images and posters at the site this weekend to inform the locals about the luxury coffee brand's upcoming arrival in the region.
Customers may look forward to more branches, as Lotte will also open outlets at its department stores. In addition to the physical stores, offline channels will be launched to cater to B2B and e-commerce markets.
About Bacha Coffee
The coffee brand is already well-known and is, in fact, a legendary name in the coffee industry. It originated in Marrakesh, Morocco, and currently, it has 18 stores operating in nine countries, including France, Singapore, Dubai, and Hong Kong.
Gonggam News reported that Bacha Coffee is particularly famous for its rich flavored coffees made with 100% Arabica beans. Travelers usually buy the products not only for themselves but they have become a favorite gift to loved ones as well.
