China General Manager Message
As one of the representative enterprises of Japanese coffee culture, UCC has been committed to making high-quality coffee more accessible to consumers since its establishment in 1933, allowing them to enjoy the original rich aroma of freshly ground coffee. To achieve this, we have been deeply engaged in the coffee industry, from cultivating coffee on our own farms and ensuring the quality of raw materials to product development, sales, and the promotion of coffee culture. With the spirit of a true coffee craftsman, UCC always prioritizes the consumer’s perspective, striving to provide every cup of coffee that brings a heartfelt smile.
Since entering the Chinese market in 1998, UCC has provided Chinese consumers with a wide variety of coffee products. In 2007, we established a roasting factory to offer high-quality roasted coffee products to our business clients.
In recent years, with the rapid development of China’s coffee industry and e-commerce sector, the UCC brand and our products have gained increasing popularity among consumers. We have also observed the growing demand for coffee consumption, the pursuit of high quality, and the gradual formation of a unique Chinese coffee culture.
As coffee culture continues to evolve in the Chinese market, UCC, with its traditional Japanese coffee craftsmanship, aims to explore more possibilities and bring even more outstanding products to Chinese consumers.
