Krak Boba is a fast-casual boba tea franchise that was founded in Riverside, California in 2021. The brand was established with a creative vision inspired by the legend of King Krakus and the Dragon, symbolizing inner strength and originality.
Krak Boba operates under Krak Boba Franchising LLC and is committed to offering flavorful, customizable drinks in a vibrant, youthful atmosphere.
Headquartered in Riverside, CA, Krak Boba began franchising in the early 2020s. It has rapidly expanded, with at least 25 locations across California, Texas, Indiana, and Colorado.
The menu includes a wide selection of milk teas, fruit teas, coffee, smoothies, and snackable food items. Each drink is presented as an “elixir,” highlighting the brand’s goal to energize and empower customers.
Krak Boba also engages customers with a loyalty-driven mobile app, known as the Krak Circle, and a strong visual brand that resonates with a younger, trend-aware audience.
Here's what you would need to invest if you were to start this franchise. These costs are provided by the franchisor in the Franchise Disclosure Document.
Krak Boba offers a structured and multi-faceted training program to ensure franchisees are fully prepared to operate their outlets effectively. These programs are designed to cover initial setup as well as ongoing operational support. Below are the numbered training programs:
Krak Boba offers franchisees a limited form of territorial protection. Each franchisee is granted a “Territory,” typically defined based on population density—either 80,000 people or a 3-mile radius, whichever is less.
The franchisor commits not to allow another Krak Boba outlet within this Territory, provided the franchisee remains in compliance with the agreement terms. However, Krak Boba retains broad rights within that same area.
The franchisor may still distribute its products through alternative channels such as grocery stores, co-branded outlets, and online platforms, even within a franchisee’s designated Territory. Franchisees do not receive compensation for sales made through these channels, which limits the exclusivity of their territorial rights.
