How Choco Up Helped BBT Lab Brew Bigger Events Without Cash Flow Drama

BBT Lab

Expertise

Company

BBT Lab is Sydney’s go-to bubble tea store located in Surry Hills known for its catering service, delivering interactive carts, self-serve stations, and barista setups for weddings, corporate events, birthdays, and brand activations across the city.

Challenges

When Seasonal Peak Meets Ingredient Bottlenecks

Rapid bookings for event activations created cash squeezes:

  • Bulk buying tea leaves, pearls, milk, and cups ahead of multi-day gigs.
  • Covering staff, carts, and delivery for last-minute corporate orders.
  • Hybrid model (catering + physical store at Surry Hills) with uneven payment cycles.
  • Banks couldn’t match their event-driven, fast-paced rhythm.

Our solution

Funding That Flows Like Bubble Tea

Choco Up supplied revenue-based capital synced to BBT Lab’s sales data, funding bookings in days without collateral.

This let them:

  • Stockpile ingredients for big events without delays.
  • Bridge payments from corporates while fulfilling next-day orders.
