Case Study, Chinese Restaurant FuDuHuiYan

As a furniture supplier, Yumeya specializes in restaurant chair manufacture and has delivered diverse horeca furniture solutions for many well-known chain restaurant brands. Our horeca chairs are widely used in casual dining, all-day dining, and premium Chinese restaurants. Today, we would like to share a case study from a high-end Chinese restaurant project in Guangzhou, China.

Restaurant Requirements

FuduHuiyan is a local Cantonese-style tea house brand and one of the leading high-end banquet restaurants in Guangdong. It attracts hundreds of diners daily, and its third branch is about to open.

As a premium dining venue, the procurement manager explained that their team had spent a long time searching for the right contract restaurant furniture but could not find a satisfying solution. “We reviewed many styles, but most either did not match the overall décor or lacked uniqueness. We need furniture that reflects the elegance and sophistication of a Chinese restaurant, while still delivering a high-end impression. However, most products on the market are too generic, with no standout features.”

In terms of dining experience, the space layout is equally important. No guest wants to sit too close to the next table, which creates an uncomfortable feeling of dining with strangers. At the same time, enough space must be kept for guests and service staff to move easily. Round tables allow flexible layout changes, make better use of corner areas, and can also fit extra chairs such as baby high chairs. Normally, dining chairs extend about 450 mm from the table when in use, so another 450 mm of clearance should be reserved to avoid guests being bumped by staff or other diners. It is also important to check the back legs of the chairs, as they may stick out and create tripping risks for customers.

Yumeya Offers Practical Solutions
In restaurants, frequent layout changes and heavy daily use of furniture often lead to higher labor and time costs. So how can restaurants manage these challenges efficiently without reducing service quality? The answer is aluminum furniture.

Unlike solid wood, aluminum is a lightweight metal with only one-third the density of steel. This makes aluminum horeca furniture not only lighter and easier to move but also helps reduce staff workload. With aluminum furniture, restaurants can set up and rearrange seating faster, lowering labor costs while keeping service flexible and efficient.

After carefully reviewing the restaurant’s layout and interior design, the Yumeya team suggested the YL1163 model. This chair, produced through our expertise in restaurant chair manufacture, features a timeless design with armrest holes that make it easier to handle in large dining halls. The stackable structure adds even more value, allowing for quick packing, moving, and storage when not in use. For venues that often host banquets or events, this flexibility is especially useful when adjusting seating layouts and floor plans. Whether placed in a European-style luxurious space or a Chinese-style elegant setting, the YL1163 blends in naturally.

For private dining rooms, we recommended the more premium YSM006 model. With a supportive backrest, it creates a refined and comfortable dining experience. The black frame combined with white tablecloths delivers a striking visual contrast, giving the room a more stylish look. In these private spaces, seating comfort is critical—whether for business meetings or family gatherings. Choosing the right contract restaurant furniture ensures that guests stay longer and enjoy their meals, while uncomfortable chairs can shorten visit times and hurt the restaurant’s reputation.

The Ideal Choice for Commercial Furniture

With 27 years of experience, Yumeya knows exactly what commercial spaces need from their furniture. We help clients build their brand identity through furniture design—making sure every piece is safe, comfortable, and fits the space perfectly.

Strength

All Yumeya chairs come with a 10-year frame warranty. This is possible because we use 2.0mm thick aluminum alloy, which is both strong and light. To make the frame even stronger, we use reinforced tubes and insert-welded construction, similar to the mortise-and-tenon joints of solid wood chairs. This design gives the chairs high stability and long life. At the same time, aluminum is lighter than solid wood, making the chairs easier to move and arrange. Every chair is tested to hold up to 500 pounds, meeting the needs of busy restaurants, hotels, and other commercial spaces.

Durability

In busy places, chairs are used every day and often get bumped or scratched. If the surface wears out quickly, it can make the restaurant look old and lower the customer’s impression. To solve this, Yumeya works with Tiger, a world-famous powder coating brand. Our skilled workers apply the coating carefully, giving the chairs brighter colors, better protection, and three times more resistance to scratches.

Stackability

For event venues and restaurants, stackable chairs save space and cut costs. They can be moved and stored quickly, making setup and cleaning much easier. Good stackable chairs, like Yumeya’s, stay strong even when stacked and won’t bend or break. This makes them a smart choice for places that need flexibility and efficiency every day.

Summary

In dining spaces, furniture transcends mere functionality to become a vital component of brand identity. Leveraging years of expertise in commercial furniture, Yumeya consistently delivers tailored solutions for global clients through innovative design and rigorous quality standards.
