% Arabica has come a long way since founder Kenneth Shoji established its flagship store in the ancient city of Kyoto in 2014. Supported by franchise partners worldwide, Arabica is now the fastest growing specialty coffee brand in the world. The brand was introduced to Hong Kong with a flourish in 2017, with the opening of two concept stores in prime, highly visible locations: the Star Ferry Terminal in Tsim Sha Tsui, and the International Finance Centre Mall in Central.
