[Sophia 学习笔记-English]002- Luckin

Luckin Coffee, which is growing rapidly thanks to a focus on cheaper drinks, priced it initial public offering (IPO) on the Nasdaq at $17 a share.

That was at the high end of its range and it values Luckin Coffee at more than $4 billion.

Luckin Coffe has quickly taken China by storm.

The company, which was founded in October 2017, already has nearly 2400 stores in 28 cities. That makes it second only to Star-bucks in China.
