“Being recognized as part of Square 50 is such an honor, especially as an Asian American, woman, and immigrant-owned business,” said Jaja Chen, Co-Owner of Cha Community in Waco, TX. “We started with a pop-up tent in 2018 with the mission to bridge cultures and create community through food and drink, and now we’re getting ready to open our third location. Our business has prioritized sustainability through sourcing loose-leaf teas from Taiwan and direct-trade providers to offering reusable tea-ware and biodegradable bamboo fiber straws, so being recognized for this accomplishment brings us great joy and reflects our team’s hard work over the past six years.”

After receiving thousands of submissions from countries across the globe, including the US, Australia, Canada, France, Ireland, Japan, Spain, and the UK, Square selected just 50 that stood out in the following categories:

  • Innovation: Businesses that innovate within their industry, from diversifying their offerings to revolutionizing their operations to stand out from the competition.
  • Growth: Businesses that made incredible strides to expand their reach through new locations, increased revenue, international expansion, and more.
  • Community: Businesses that enrich the communities where they operate, supporting charities, prioritizing diversity in their employment, building inclusive spaces, and operating with integrity.
  • Experience: Businesses that change the game in customer experiences and level up their operations to entice new and existing patrons.
