Reborn Coffee Celebrates Grand Opening of Shenzhen Flagship Location at Tencent Headquarters Campus, Marking Strategic Next Phase of China Expansion

Opening Establishes a Foundation for Multi-Province Growth Across China and Reinforces Reborn Coffee’s Broader International Expansion Strategy

BREA, Calif., March 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)Reborn Coffee Inc. (Nasdaq: REBN) (the “Company”), a leader in the specialty coffee market, announced today the successful grand opening of its flagship location in Shenzhen, China on March 18, 2026. Located within Tencent’s new headquarters campus, the opening marks a significant milestone in Reborn Coffee’s international growth strategy and further advances the Company’s previously announced expansion initiatives in China.

The Shenzhen flagship reflects the Company’s broader strategy to build a scalable presence across multiple provinces in China. As one of China’s leading centers of technology, innovation, and modern urban development, Shenzhen offers a strategically aligned entry point for the brand, with a consumer base that is highly responsive to premium, design-driven, and innovation-led lifestyle concepts.

The Company believes this opening represents an important starting point for Reborn Coffee’s future growth in China. Beyond the launch of a single flagship store, the Shenzhen location is intended to serve as a foundation for broader regional expansion, brand visibility, and operational development in one of the world’s most dynamic consumer markets. By delivering high-quality refreshment services in the heart of a major technology ecosystem, Reborn Coffee is positioning itself to participate meaningfully in technology-driven urban spaces while integrating local cultural relevance with a forward-looking market strategy.

“This grand opening in Shenzhen represents a meaningful step in our long-term vision to build Reborn Coffee into a global brand,” said Jay Kim, Co-Chief Executive Officer of Reborn Coffee Inc. “We believe Shenzhen is one of the most strategically important cities in China, and we are proud to establish this flagship presence as a platform for continued growth across China and, over time, broader global market development.”

As Reborn Coffee continues to pursue international expansion, management believes the Shenzhen opening strengthens the Company’s brand position in Asia and supports its broader objective of building a globally recognized specialty coffee platform. The Company intends to continue advancing disciplined growth in China while supporting the long-term global development of the Reborn Coffee brand.
