Integrated Supply Chain Spanning Three Continents

This secures premium ingredients ranging from coffee beans, coconuts, jasmine flowers, and navel oranges.
Beyond sourcing, Luckin has continued to strengthen its manufacturing capabilities through investment in self-operated facilities. These include a Green Coffee Bean Processing Plant in Baoshan, Yunnan province, and Roasting Centers in Qingdao, Kunshan, Pingnan, and Xiamen. Together, these assets create an integrated value chain covering ingredient sourcing, processing, product development, and digital distribution. This provides a reliable foundation for Luckin’s expanding beverage portfolio.
