NEIWAI’s body positivity campaign named “No Body is Nobody” was a big hit. So, this campaign featured a diverse group of Chinese women of many ages, skin tones and sizes; and focused on more profound issues like body image anxiety, and acceptance towards different skin tones, body shapes, ages. Following the campaign, many women have shared the importance of “allowing ourselves to be ourselves” (允许自己作为这样的自己存在). Increasingly more Chinese women are realizing the power they have to own their identities, breaking open the century-old beauty standards. (Explore more on the Chinese shapewear market.)

Manner is booming in the coffee industry

MANNER COFFEE was founded by husband and wife Han Yulong and Lu Jianxia. According to the Equal Ocean, MANNER started out with 2 square meter cafes. Six months later MANNER received its first investment from Temasek, totaling US $1.3 billion.

For example, the price of classic Manner coffee is between 10 and 25 RMB, of which espresso and Americanos are 10 RMB and 15 RMB, respectively. Latte, cappuccino and mocha vary depending on specifications, and the price for one cup of coffee ranges from 20-25 RMB. This places Manner at a lower price than competitors like Starbucks and Costa Coffee, but with a reputation of being high quality. (Learn more about the China’s coffee market.)
