 The Group prides itself on being market-driven, preferring to spend “time and effort to study opportunities rather than go on a “gut feel’”.Mr Ang and his team of chefs and managers travelled around Guangzhou and Hong Kong, “eating three meals of hotpot every day for a week” as part of market research when the JPOT hotpot restaurant concept was under development.The company prioritises training and retaining staff, and nearly 100 staff members have been with them for over 10 years.
