Ten Thousand has already begun expanding its franchise business, with a strong presence in New York, offering a distinctive specialty coffee experience. With premium-quality beans and a refined brand identity, Ten Thousand provides franchise partners with a stable business model, supported by a cost-effective investment structure and a systematic operating system.
The brand is preparing new openings in New Jersey, California, Texas, and Illinois, with additional franchise contracts underway in New York, Washington, Maryland, and Georgia. Internationally, Ten Thousand operates successfully in Australia, Taiwan, and Vietnam, and recently signed a master franchise agreement in the Philippines to further accelerate global expansion.
Modern Korean Bakery Brand: L’AMI
L’AMI reinterprets the rich flavors of traditional Korean bakery items in a modern style, alongside premium desserts. Offering two operating models—In-Shop and Stand-Alone—the brand gives franchise partners flexibility and unique competitiveness, with strong growth potential.
Currently, five locations are operating in New York, Virginia, and Hawaii, with a new store opening soon inside H Mart Great Neck, New York. Beginning this year, L’AMI is officially launching its U.S. franchise business and is fully prepared to grow with its first franchise partners.
Company Vision
A BK Franchise representative stated:
“Ten Thousand Coffee and L’AMI Bakery will go beyond simply being cafés and bakeries to become global brands that offer American consumers a new cultural experience. We look forward to welcoming franchise partners who share our passion and vision.”
