In recent years, China has gradually become one of the largest consumer markets in the world. It not only has a large scale and volume, but also has strong economic resilience and market potential. Against this background, a large number of cutting-edge consumer brands have risen rapidly with the help of the Internet, and have continuously demonstrated the power of self-innovation. As one of the chain coffee brands with the largest number of stores in China, Luckin Coffee’s performance in 2022 is very impressive:
In the first half of the year, overseas debt restructuring and bankruptcy procedures were completed; on the basis of achieving a complete separation from historical issues, it has maintained a good performance development momentum for three consecutive quarters, launched a sustainable development strategy, actively carried out environmental, social and governance-related work, and promoted the company to steadily enter the stage of normal growth.

In order to complete the rapid transformation from “traditional private enterprise to modern corporate governance model” and fundamentally change the problems of strategic dispersion and over-expansion in the past, Luckin uses mobile Internet and data technology to refine and reconstruct the three core business models of “people, goods, and markets” to promote the effective implementation of innovative changes. In this process, focusing on the continuous promotion of the goal of strengthening the financial system, Luckin continuously optimizes the underlying data structure with the support of the financial management system and big data platform.
