Driven by strong stock market performance, Cloud-based (2748-TW) expects record-breaking banquet orders this year, led by AI supply chain firms and financial institutions.

What Happened

Record Banquet Orders: Fueled by the wealth effect from a strong stock market, Cloud-based (2748-TW) is seeing a surge in year-end banquet and spring dinner bookings. The company has already secured 8,150 tables and expects total annual orders to reach a record 11,000 tables, marking a 10% year-over-year increase.

AI and Finance Demand: Competition for large-scale banquet venues is intense, with events exceeding 600 tables accounting for half of all orders. The primary demand stems from AI supply chain firms, major financial holding companies, and electronics manufacturers, signaling corporate confidence in the economic outlook.

Increased Budgets and Upgrades: Many listed companies are not only increasing the number of tables but are also boosting budgets to reward employees, with some clients opting for premium Michelin-starred menus. This trend reflects a broader corporate willingness to invest in employee morale amid positive economic indicators.

Operational Resilience: Despite widespread labor shortages in the hospitality sector, Cloud-based is leveraging its group-wide staffing flexibility and extensive experience in large-scale catering to meet demand. The company remains well-positioned to execute these high-capacity events throughout the year-end season.
