Steelage Construction proudly delivered a full-service tenant improvement project for a Gong Cha Bubble Tea location in Vancouver, BC. Acting as the General Contractor, we managed the project end-to-end—transforming a previously dated retail unit into a vibrant, high-performance beverage space aligned with Gong Cha’s global brand standards.
Our team executed a seamless build by aligning structural upgrades with modern retail design, ensuring both functionality and visual impact:
We completed full demolition and responsible disposal of the existing interior, followed by precise framing, drywall installation, and structural enhancements tailored to meet commercial and seismic requirements.
Steelage managed the complete electrical and mechanical scope, including energy-efficient lighting, power distribution for specialized beverage equipment, and optimized layouts to support high-volume operations—all completed under strict permitting and inspection standards.
The space was brought to life with contemporary finishes reflecting Gong Cha’s brand identity, including durable tile flooring, clean wall treatments, modern service counters, and refined trim details designed for a polished customer experience.
We fabricated and installed custom millwork, including the service counter, preparation stations, and integrated menu display areas—balancing aesthetics with operational efficiency for staff workflow.
Through disciplined project management, consistent on-site supervision, and detailed finishing processes, Steelage Construction delivered the space in a fully operational, move-in-ready condition. Every element—from back-of-house functionality to front-of-house presentation—was executed with precision.
This project highlights our capability to deliver branded retail environments that are both visually engaging and operationally efficient, reinforcing Steelage Construction’s commitment to quality craftsmanship in Vancouver’s commercial sector.
