Potato Corner has opened its first store in Taiwan, marking its entry into its 16th international market.
The new location is inside the Uni-President Department Store in Taipei’s Xinyi District.
The brand is part of Shakey’s Pizza Asia Ventures Inc. (SPAVI), a leading food service group owned by the Po family. Since SPAVI acquired the brand in 2022, Potato Corner has expanded to 2,345 stores worldwide.
The company teamed up with Taiwan-based Fujin Tree Group, a lifestyle and food and beverage operator, to bring the brand to Taiwan. Fujin Tree’s portfolio includes 15 brands and a Michelin-starred restaurant.
Jay Wu, founder of Fujin Tree Group, said the company was “honored to introduce Potato Corner, a beloved global brand, to Taiwan.”
“We look forward to adding more stores by the end of the year. Our goal is for Potato Corner to become the preferred spot for everyday gatherings and joyful moments,” Wu said.
Vicente Gregorio, SPAVI president and chief executive, said the opening was part of the brand’s global expansion.
“Potato Corner’s debut in Taipei is a milestone not just for our flavored fries, but for our Group vision of WOW-ing more guests around the world,” Gregorio said.
“And with the strong support of our partner Fujin Tree, we look forward to strengthening and scaling our presence in Taiwan,” he said.
