Bryan Loo, the founder and CEO of Loob Holding, has solidified his reputation as a visionary entrepreneur on the Malaysian landscape, where he has successfully modernised tea-drinking culture. With over 1,000 Tealive outlets around the globe, including Australia, the United Kingdom, and Hong Kong, Loo’s business acumen is unquestionable, and he shows no signs of slowing down. As he continues to expand Tealive and aims to take Loob Holding public, he is also intensifying Bask Bear Coffee’s growth locally as well as kombucha brand WonderBrew and sparkling water maker Sodaxpress.

Loo’s business savvy is matched by his impeccable personal style, recently recognised as one of Asia’s Most Stylish, establishing him as an icon not just in the boardroom but also in the fashion world. Being the disruptor that he is, Loo applies that to his style philosophy as well. He loves to push boundaries by pairing a suit with fancy shorts or combining a formal suit with sneakers, attributing it to his love for streetwear. “This juxtaposition of styles allows me to showcase my creativity and add a touch of individuality to my outfits,” he says before explaining that “your fashion choices become an extension of your personal brand, conveying confidence, professionalism, and attention to detail. It’s a powerful tool that helps you establish credibility and differentiate yourself in the business world.” He is hardly without his current watch of the moment as the perfect accessory to add a touch of polish to his overall look.
