Chizu Café operator Daruma Capital eyes Singapore IPO

Daruma Capital is partnering with MCI Capital as its financial advisor for the IPO.

Malaysia's Daruma Capital Sdn Bhd, which runs the Chizu café chain, Yaki Soul, and Daruma Pastry Supply, plans to list on the Singapore Exchange (SGX).

Ong Leong Fuei, founder and managing director of Daruma Capital, said the proposed listing aims to broaden its capital markets footprint and gain access to a wider investor base in Southeast Asian markets.

Daruma Capital is partnering with MCI Capital Sdn Bhd as its financial advisor for the initial public offering (IPO).

MCI Capital noted that their engagement as advisors will include overall capital markets strategy, listing readiness, liaison with and coordination of professionals, and assistance with capital structure optimisation for the SGX listing.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
