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

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
