This month, Fresh Beer Fulujia (\u798f\u9e7f\u5bb6\u9c9c\u5564), the freshly brewed beer brand incubated under Mixue Bingcheng<\/a> (\u871c\u96ea\u51b0\u57ce), announced the cancellation of its internal referral system, fully opening its franchise pipeline to external investors. Alongside the move, the brand rolled out a limited-time incentive package aimed at reducing the upfront pressure of opening during the colder, traditionally slower season.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the promotion, new franchisees receive a three-year waiver on franchise fees, normally priced at RMB 10,000 per year (about US $1,420)<\/a>, as well as a three-month winter exemption on management fees. In total, the policy reduces costs by RMB 34,500 (about US $4,899). Excluding rent and staffing, the brand estimates startup investment at roughly RMB 60,000 (about US $ 8,521), covering equipment, initial inventory, training and deposits. Existing partners opening additional stores are offered further reductions on design and training fees.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The incentives arrive as Fresh Beer Fulujia continues to scale rapidly<\/strong>. Founded in 2021, the brand crossed the 1,000-store mark in June and, as of December 1, reports more than 1,500 outlets Chinawide. Its footprint now spans over 300 prefecture-level cities across 22 provinces, three autonomous regions and three municipalities. November alone saw more than 150 new openings, with expansion accelerating beyond major cities into county-level markets.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Location strategy closely mirrors Mixue\u2019s playbook: prioritising lower rents, standardised formats and value pricing. To address investor concerns around beer\u2019s seasonal demand swings, the brand has also expanded its winter menu, introducing warmer-leaning and low-alcohol offerings designed to broaden consumption occasions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Priced largely in the single-digit yuan range and featuring flavour profiles closer to new-style tea than traditional beer, Fresh Beer Fulujia is positioning itself around affordability, light drinking and everyday social use. <\/strong>Whether this formula can replicate Mixue Bingcheng\u2019s scale in another category remains an open question \u2013 but its pace of expansion suggests the experiment is only accelerating.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
