According to Michael Kark, Chief Global Licensing Officer of Shake Shack, “We continue to be blown away by the enthusiasm of our fans throughout the world and are thrilled to announce our further development in Southeast Asia.”

“This represents our sixth country in Asia, and together with the SPC Group, we expect to have more than 45 Shake Shacks across Korea, Singapore, and Malaysia by 2031,” he added. 

Over the past five years, both Shake Shack and SPC Group have collaborated in opening 28 stores in Korea and Singapore. “We are eager to deepen the relationship, bringing the brand mission to Stand for Something Good to Malaysia,” said HeeSoo Hur, Vice President of SPC Group Korea.
