Jumbo Group unit forms Singapore JV to launch Lausanjee QSR chain

The company will invest $980k for a 49% stake.

Jumbo Group Limited said its wholly owned subsidiary, Jumbo F&B Services Pte. Ltd. (JFS), has formed a joint venture (JV) company with Laoxiangji Holdings Pte. Ltd. (LXJ) in Singapore to operate Chinese-style quick-service restaurants under the Lausanjee brand.

Under the agreement, JFS will invest $980k for a 49% stake in the JV company, whilst LXJ will invest $1.02m for the remaining 51%.

LXJ holds the rights to the Lausanjee trademarks and trade names in Singapore and will grant the JV the right to use the brand through a franchise agreement.

The JV's board will have three directors, with LXJ appointing two and JFS appointing one.

The board will oversee strategy and governance, whilst an appointed management team will handle daily operations.

Jumbo Group said its investment will be funded through internal resources and is not expected to have a material impact on the group's net tangible assets per share or earnings per share for the financial year ending 30 September 2026.

Lausanjee currently operates more than 1,600 restaurants across over 50 cities in China through a mix of company-owned and franchised outlets.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
