The Wang Brand Group's Xiamuni brand has announced a limited-time set meal for the Qixi Festival. Despite being a brand operated by Wang Brand for 21 years, market demand remains strong. Currently, there are 15 Xiamuni stores across Taiwan, and the group plans to open 3 more by the end of this year and another 3 by next year, bringing the total to 21 stores. In addition to street stores, they are also planning to open stores in department stores, including Xinchuang Yulon City, Taichung Shoushun, and Yilan Xin Yue Plaza.
