Just Kitchen Holdings Corp. (" JustKitchen " or the " Company ") (TSXV: JK), an operator of ghost kitchens specializing in the development of delivery-only food brands for customers across Taiwan is pleased to announce that it has acquired the virtual branding rights to "Formosa Chang".  Established over 60 years ago, Formosa Chang is an iconic household name in Taiwan being a family-owned Taiwanese food brand that is cherished by locals and ex-patriots the world over. JustKitchen holds the for-delivery-only rights to offer Formosa Chang branded food items from the area southward of municipal Taichung City across Taiwan over an initial period of one year.

"We are extremely privileged to be able to showcase Formosa Chang's storied brand, which has never been licensed on this basis before, and offer its classic food items on a virtual basis to our growing base of delivery-only customers. The combination of JustKitchen's unique hub-and-spoke operating model and technology-enabled ghost kitchens, with Formosa Chang's position as perhaps the top casual food brand in Taiwan , provides a great opportunity for us to scale up our businesses together," said Jason Chen , Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of JustKitchen. "JustKitchen will rigorously apply Formosa Chang's standard operating procedures to maintain the consistency of the timeless dishes that people have come to know and love. Being granted this license further validates JustKitchen's business model and the quality of the food delivered to our customers," added Mr. Chen.

Formosa Chang began when its founder, Yan-quan Chang, opened a stall in 1960 to sell braised pork rice opposite the Shuanglian Market in Taiwan . Based on the use of highly selective ingredients and accessible price points, the business quickly developed a loyal following that has translated into its current reputation as a staple provider of authentic Taiwanese comfort food. Formosa Chang's customers span generations and the company currently has over 70 bricks-and-mortar restaurant locations across Taiwan .
