South African Brand Launches School Entrepreneur Day Boba Kit to Empower Young Business Minds

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — 17 April 2025

South African beverage supply company BTSO (Beverage Trade Supply Outlet) has launched a first-of-its-kind product designed to support school learners and parents during Entrepreneur Day events: the School Entrepreneur Day Boba Kit.

Created by BTSO — the parent company behind the popular brand BOBBA and online store Bubble Tea Shop Online— the kit is a complete “business-in-a-box” that allows children aged 9–13 to run their very own bubble tea stand. It includes bursting boba, syrups, cups, straws, and even a printable guide that teaches kids how to price drinks, manage stock, and calculate profit.

🧋 A Real Business Experience for Kids

“We created the School Entrepreneur Day Boba Kit because we constantly get calls from parents asking for help with school market days,” says Stuart Jenkins, founder of BTSO. “We wanted to give families more than just ingredients — we wanted to give kids a real business experience, where they take the lead instead of the parents doing all the work.”

🎓 What's Inside the Kit?

• 100 x 500ml cups with dome lids
• 2 bursting boba flavours (your choice)
• 2 fruit syrups or rooibos concentrate
• Straws, scoop, syrup pumps
• Simple instructions for setup
• A printable business guide, profit tracker, and reflection worksheet

Everything is portioned and explained to make it easy for young entrepreneurs to confidently set up and run a mini bubble tea stall at school.

💡 Empowering Youth Through Business Learning

The School Entrepreneur Day Boba Kit supports both parents and schools by offering a practical, hands-on learning experience. Kids learn:

• How to price and sell a product
• How to calculate gross profit
• How to manage stock and supplies
• The basics of customer service

More than just fun, it builds real-world confidence and responsibility — all with the support of proudly South African ingredients and design.
