Black Curry Through Multiple Third-Party Delivery
Services
VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 6,
2022 /CNW/ - Just Kitchen Holdings Corp.
("JustKitchen" or the "Company") (TSXV: JK) (OTCQB: JKHCF)
(FRA: 68Z), an operator of ghost kitchens specializing in
the development of delivery-only food brands, announces that
BistroRYU Black Curry ("BistroRYU") was launched to
consumers in Taiwan on
August 17, 2022 via the JustKitchen
app as well as via its network of third party delivery service
providers.
BistroRYU is a famous Japanese restaurant located in Hakata,
Fukuoka. JustKitchen began working
with BistroRYU in February of 2022 via a brand swap agreement with
TGAL Inc. pursuant to which the Company gained access to the
Japanese local hero brand.
BistroRYU is known for its black curry which includes the
flavour of pork bones, chicken bones, many spices, and vegetables.
Black curry gets its name because all the ingredients are melted
together, creating a black-coloured curry which has become popular
over the years for its colour and taste. BistroRYU has grown from
one store location to approximately 70 cloud kitchens in
Japan.
Since being launched by the Company, consumers in Taiwan are now able to enjoy BistroRYU black
curry dishes in the comfort of their own homes or at the office
through JustKitchen's delivery partners including Ubereats and
Foodpanda. To celebrate the launch of BistroRYU, the Company
offered customers a 20% discount on applicable food orders.
Management Commentary
"Adding BistroRYU to our brand portfolio is a win for our
customers, based on how popular it is in Japan. Black curry is a delicious and unique
product. Being able to offer it to consumers in Taiwan is part of what differentiates
JustKitchen from the competition," said Jason Chen, Co-Founder and Chief Executive
Officer of JustKitchen. "Indian inspired cuisine with a Japanese
twist isn't something that most people experience every day. It's
fun to bring a brand like BistroRYU to our home market and offer it
to our loyal customers," added. Mr. Chen.
