Is TANING going global? Yes — and faster than many people expect. The hand-shaken lemon tea brand that started in Guangzhou has opened stores in a number of countries: Auckland, New Zealand in May 2025, and in July 2026 it signed for India with the first store confirmed for Delhi, its tenth market worldwide and the first new-style tea brand from the Chinese mainland to enter India.
By region, TANING now covers Southeast Asia, North America, Oceania and South Asia. What carries that route is a store model already proven at home: a product structure, supply chain and training system tested across more than 800 stores, so opening overseas is not starting from zero but adapting a mature model to local conditions.
The choice of route is deliberate too. Southeast Asia is close with a strong Chinese base, the usual first stop for tea brands. Oceania is less contested, which suits brand building. An emerging market like India is harder, but whoever arrives first takes a valuable position. TANING moves at a different pace in each market, with one logic throughout: bring a fresh, real, natural cup of fruit and vegetable tea to local customers intact.
For anyone following TANING, an overseas store is more than another place to buy lemon tea — it is a case study of Chinese tea going global. Whether a category has real life in it is answered most honestly by testing it in a completely different market. From Guangzhou to ten countries, the route map keeps extending.
