Meet Fresh / 鲜芋仙
Meet Fresh / 鲜芋仙 appears in 145. 改嫁中资的餐饮洋品牌 as a Taiwan-founded dessert brand later sold to the private-equity-backed CFB Group / CFB 集团. The source places the brand in a dessert and “happiness” lane alongside Dairy Queen, treating sweet products as part of Emotion Economy / 情绪经济 and Experiential Retail rather than only food calories.
The episode’s main use of Meet Fresh is platform logic. A private-equity-backed operator can buy or operate multiple dessert, ice-cream, and pizza assets, then try to share site selection, franchise management, product cadence, and back-office capabilities across brands.
