Fore Coffee remains optimistic about continuing its trend of exponential business performance growth in 2025, following a significant surge in financial performance during the 2024 fiscal year.
Vico Lomar, President Director of PT Fore Kopi Indonesia Tbk, stated that despite an economic slowdown, the Company sees the food and beverage industry—particularly coffee and non-alcoholic beverages—as still showing strong growth potential.
“Customer enthusiasm for our product innovations, such as the Butterscotch Sea Salt Latte and Triple Peach Americano—both of which became best-sellers—demonstrates the sustained appeal of our market,” said Vico after the Annual General Meeting at Fore Experience, Panglima Polim, Jakarta, Thursday (26/6).
Vico also highlighted the public’s positive response to Fore Coffee’s store expansion.
“We’ve seen high enthusiasm at every new store opening. By the end of 2024, our network had reached over 40 cities across Indonesia and Singapore. Consumer demand for recreational experiences, which can be fulfilled by high-quality yet affordable food and beverage products like those offered by Fore Coffee, plays a significant role here,” he added.
Financial Performance and Growth Strategy
Fore Coffee’s revenue soared by 115% to IDR 1.04 trillion, and net profit skyrocketed by over 4,900% to IDR 58.2 billion in the 2024 fiscal year. This outstanding result was driven by the positive momentum of the Company’s aggressive expansion strategy, marked by a 35% increase in the number of outlets—reaching 232 by the end of 2024.
With this strong income statement performance, Fore Coffee’s equity as of 31 December 2024 rose by 227% YoY to IDR 253.12 billion, while liabilities increased 48% YoY to IDR 387.64 billion. As a result, total assets stood at IDR 640.76 billion by the end of 2024, up 89% YoY.
“In 2025, the Company has set targets to further improve its financial and operational performance, while maintaining strong customer loyalty toward the Fore Coffee brand,” Vico emphasized.
He noted that the Company’s confidence in achieving its 2025 financial performance targets is backed by an increasingly mature and systematic approach to new outlet openings and a firm commitment to operational excellence as a key pillar for maintaining quality and efficiency.
“Equally important are the continued growth and increasing acceptance of the Fore Coffee brand by consumers gives us confidence to push further in 2025,” Vico concluded.
Commitment to Corporate Governance and Sustainability
After leading the AGMS, Willson Cuaca, President Commissioner of the Company, expressed his appreciation for the continued support from investors since the IPO, through to the secondary market trading period. He emphasized the Board of Commissioners’ commitment to building strong corporate governance (GCG), evidenced by the establishment of the audit committee, nomination and remuneration committee, and the appointment of an internal audit head and corporate secretary.
“Fore Coffee continues to strengthen its leadership in Indonesia’s premium coffee market through focused product positioning, strong operations and financial foundations, and solid corporate governance. Our products stand out for their quality, accessibility, and uniqueness. We continue to adapt flavors and maintain a price-to-quality ratio that is unmatched in this segment. With deep in-house R&D, we localize flavor profiles and introduce seasonal menus tailored to customer demand, while preserving the unbeatable value of our offerings,” said Willson.
“Operationally, we maintain high gross operating profit (GOP) per store through comprehensive control over the supply chain—from raw material sourcing to production and distribution. Our internally developed technology allows for inventory optimization, waste reduction, and personalized customer experiences across multiple channels.
This entire foundation—combined with strong governance and our commitment to transparency—underpinned the success of our IPO process and is paving the way for long-term sustainable value creation.
We remain committed to long-term growth through efficient capital allocation, network optimization, and product innovation,” Willson concluded.
