Chapter 1859: Chapter 627: Invitation (Part 2)

Xie Shuyu’s expression shifted slightly, and she immediately said, "Thank you, Ranran. Please send the electronic invitation letter to my email, and also help me find some background information on the participants as soon as possible."

"Don’t worry, I’ve already prepared it for you."

After hanging up the phone, Xie Shuyu’s fingertips gently tapped on the smooth screen of her mobile phone, with a sharp light gleaming in her eyes.

Most of Glimmer Coffee’s current stores are still mainly concentrated in the North Region, with Yan City as the core.

In first-tier cities like Imperial City and Shanghai, only flagship stores have been strategically established to build brand image, without large-scale expansion.

However, after detailed market research and data analysis, she has identified the Southwest region as the next strategic location for cluster expansion.

The Southwest region, particularly Chuan Province and Yun Province, is one of the best areas in Huaxia for dairy products and coffee beans.

Her plan is to take Rong City as the core base and intensively open at least 20 stores in three different formats: leisurely enjoy, quick takeout, and flagship.

To radiate to surrounding core cities such as Jiang City and Spring City.

Moreover, Glimmer Coffee is about to reach a deep strategic cooperation with a top coffee supplier under Smile Holding, located in Yun Province.

This major positive news further strengthened her determination to deeply explore the Southwest region.

At this moment, Zhao Yaqian and Zhang Yurong, who had also changed into bathrobes, walked over with smiles.

Xie Shuyu quickly retracted her sharpness and returned to an elegant and composed demeanor.

The three of them leisurely leaned on the sofa, chatting about interesting anecdotes from various places.

Of course, it was mainly Xie Shuyu and Zhang Yurong chatting.

After a harmonious lunch and a shared spa session, the atmosphere became unprecedentedly harmonious and intimate.

Taking a sip of soothing chamomile tea, Zhao Yaqian seemed to suddenly remember something.

Tilting her head towards Xie Shuyu, she said, "Oh, right, Sister Shuyu, I just remembered, I seem to have a friend working at your Glimmer Coffee, though she works part-time."

"Oh? Who is it?" A genuine hint of surprise flashed in Xie Shuyu’s eyes.

Unexpectedly, someone like Zhao Yaqian actually knew a part-time employee at their company.

"Qian Lele, a student at Yan City Normal University. I wonder if you know her, Sister Shuyu?"

"Lele?" Xie Shuyu raised her eyebrows, revealing a bright smile, "She is indeed our part-time front-end developer, responsible for maintaining the mini-program. The world is truly small; I didn’t expect you to know her."

"Actually, I used to be a regular customer at your Glimmer Coffee, especially fond of the baked cakes made by Lele." Zhao Yaqian smiled with curved eyes, "Over time, we got to know each other. I heard from her that your Glimmer Coffee has now established its own central kitchen just outside the East Second Ring of Yan City, right?"

"Yes." Mentioning her business, Xie Shuyu’s eyes instantly became bright and focused, "It just started production last month, mainly to ensure the standardization of baking and light meal product quality, and to better control costs.

Now, all our stores in Yan City, including future new branches in the entire North Region, will have core products produced and distributed uniformly by the central kitchen."

After hearing her explanation, Zhao Yaqian nervously rubbed her hands, organizing her words.

She turned to Zhang Yurong and said, "Sister Yurong, doesn’t Isa Beauty Industry always have an afternoon tea service? But the flavors of our cooperating suppliers feel just average.

Since Sister Shuyu has a ready-made central kitchen with such good quality, why don’t we cooperate with Glimmer Coffee?"

Upon hearing her suggestion, Xie Shuyu’s eyes immediately lit up, and she sat up straight.

"Qianqian, this suggestion is excellent! To be honest, Yurong, I’ve always had this in mind, I just hadn’t figured out how to bring it up. Our central kitchen at Glimmer can specially customize a set of healthy, low-calorie ’beauty-themed’ afternoon tea for Isa Beauty Industry, ensuring exclusive quality and high-end distinction..."

The more Xie Shuyu spoke, the more excited she became. Finally, she moved directly next to Zhao Yaqian, holding her hand, and introduced her plan.

In fact, she did have plans to expand her business from purely store retail to enterprise customization and supply chain output.

But this plan is still in the realm of imagination, and persuading a savvy businesswoman like Zhang Yurong to cooperate requires long negotiations and coordination.

Zhao Yaqian’s move was truly a helping hand in a time of need.

Isa Beauty Industry is the most high-end chain beauty salon in Yan City, and now it has invested heavily in the medical beauty project, with brand value and customer spending power being impeccable.

It’s her most ideal first "model client"!

Zhang Yurong’s gaze flickered across the faces of the two, with a slightly awkward expression, but it was quickly replaced by a hearty smile, "Qianqian, if you think it’s okay, then I definitely have no objections!"

Currently, Isa Beauty Industry’s cooperating supplier is her nephew.

However, with Zhao Yaqian speaking personally, she certainly couldn’t refute her face.

"That’s great!" Xie Shuyu stood up excitedly, "I’ll contact the person in charge of the central kitchen right now and have them immediately produce a product list and cooperation plan. Let’s finalize this matter as soon as possible!"

After saying this, she nodded to the two of them and got up to leave.

Watching this spirited, decisive female president, Zhao Yaqian felt a wave of envy.

Actually, this suggestion was given to her by Xue last night.

According to Xue, this is called "interest binding," and she also mentioned that President Xie is very impressive, a true self-made woman, with a lot of areas in the future where they can complement each other, and it could really help her.
