Maison Solutions MSS

Maison Solutions Inc is a specialty grocery retailer that focuses on providing traditional Asian food and merchandise to modern U. S consumers especially members of Asian American communities. The company operates a center satellite store network whereby larger full service supermarkets act as hubs that supply smaller community stores located in residential areas. Since its formation in July 2019 Maison Solutions Inc has acquired equity interests in six supermarkets across Los Angeles California and the greater Phoenix and Tucson Arizona metro areas and has expanded its footprint through the acquisition of the Lee Lee Oriental Supermart chain. The business model blends traditional grocery retail with online ordering platforms and a vertically integrated supply chain to serve both family oriented and younger shoppers.

The company generates revenue primarily from the sale of perishable goods such as fresh vegetables fruits meat and seafood and non perishable grocery items including packaged foods spices cooking utensils and snacks. Revenue also comes from online orders placed through third party mobile apps and WeChat applets that offer home delivery or in store pickup options. Additionally Maison Solutions Inc earns income from its wholesale interests in Dai Cheong which supplies imported Asian groceries to other retailers. The mix of perishable and non perishable categories contributed roughly half of net sales in recent fiscal periods.

The company operates through the following segments: Center Stores and Satellite Stores.

• Center Stores are full service supermarkets that serve traditional Asian American family oriented customers offering a wide assortment of meat fresh produce seafood and daily necessities while also stocking items that appeal to the broader community. These stores function as central hubs with storage space that acts as a warehouse to distribute products to the satellite stores in the network.
• Satellite Stores are smaller community outlets designed to penetrate neighborhoods with larger concentrations of younger customers such as Millennials and Generation Z. They offer a curated selection of ready to eat and ready to cook foods trendy products and meal solution concepts that cater to fast paced lifestyles and provide convenient shopping options.
