About Me

Zhang Hongfu is the CEO of Mixue Group, the world's second biggest seller of freshly-made drinks by annual cups sold after Starbucks. His elder brother Hongchao started a shaved ice shop in 1997 in China and opened the first Mixue Bingcheng store two years later. Hongfu joined in 2007. Nearly all-franchised, the Mixue Bingcheng chain offers bubble tea, lemonade, coffee and other drinks as well as ice cream at dirt-cheap prices across more than 50,000 stores, including nearly 5,000 overseas. The company went public in a $444 million Hong Kong IPO in March 2025. Hongchao is the chairman of the company and also a billionaire.
