Cafés/Bars in South Korea

Specialist coffee and tea shops in South Korea experienced saturation in 2024. Following a period of rapid outlet expansion and intensified competition, particularly from low-cost specialist coffee shops entering similar locations, sales per store started to decline mid-review period. Despite a marginal improvement in 2024, overall sales per outlet remain significantly lower than pre-pandemic levels, creating a more challenging environment for both chained and independent coffee shops.
