A Letter to VCs

The [Private Domain Revolution] for Small & Medium Restaurants | From a Restaurateur with 20 Years of Experience

Allow me to introduce myself. I am Sam Wang, an entrepreneur with over two decades of experience deep within Portugal's food and beverage industry. I founded the sushi chain brand [SUSHICOME®] (14 locations), an endeavor that gave me first-hand experience with the core challenges SMB restaurants face in the digital age: over-reliance on third-party platforms, exorbitant commission fees, and the loss of direct customer relationships.

[Our Team]
A seasoned "veteran" of the restaurant industry, leading a team of sharp, young graduates (second-generation Chinese-Portuguese).

[Our Product] - XIAOXIONG® Restaurant SaaS System [B2B2C]
It was precisely these frustrations that drove me to assemble a young, dynamic team (second-generation Chinese-Portuguese) to build XIAOXIONG® SaaS—a system designed to give restaurants back their operational sovereignty.

Launched in June and officially released to the market in September, our system has already secured paid subscriptions from 20+ restaurants, successfully validating our product from 0 to 1.

[Our Declaration]
To arm every restaurant for battle—the battle to reclaim sovereignty through the [Private Domain Revolution]!

[Four Core Functions]

  1. QR Code Ordering (The Spearhead): Silently and efficiently captures every customer's data, establishing the "point of entry" for your private domain traffic.

  2. Membership System (The Organization Dept.): Transforms casual diners into a "loyal army," boosting repeat business and customer lifetime value.

  3. Table Reservations (The Logistics Dept.): Allows for advanced planning of operational resources, turning uncertainty into confirmed revenue.

  4. Private Delivery (The Main Force): Helps restaurants build a direct, high-profit-margin delivery channel, actively reclaiming commissions lost to third-party platforms.

[Subscription + Shared Success Model]
Our pricing strategy is also core to "shared success": a low base subscription fee + a small fixed fee per order. This means our success is deeply tied to the success of your restaurant.

This is our ticket to November's Web Summit.

I am eager to have the opportunity to meet with you at the Summit—I am confident what we are building will make a strong impression. Of course, the chance to connect before the event would be equally, if not more, impactful.

This is a sincere invitation. If we discover [shared] ambitions, I would then invite you to our [Command Center] office. Here, you will not just see an office, but a [real operational battlefield]—a [Private Domain Revolution] in progress.

Welcome! Let's discuss how we can empower countless small and medium brands to build their own sovereign ecosystems—to become the ["Shopify for Restaurants."]

I look forward to your reply.

Sincerely,

Sam Wang
Founder & CEO, XIAOXIONG®
