Dear Ms. Rucha Pandit and Ms. Mara Ransom:

 

On behalf of our client, SUPER HI INTERNATIONAL HOLDING LTD., a company organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), we submit to the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) this letter setting forth the Company’s responses to the comments contained in the Staff’s letter dated April 2, 2024 on the Company’s revised draft registration statement on Form F-1 confidentially submitted on March 8, 2024 (the “Amendment No.2 to Draft Registration Statement”). Concurrently with the submission of this letter, the Company is submitting its further revised draft registration statement on Form F-1 (the “Amendment No.3 to Draft Registration Statement”) to the Commission for confidential review. The Company confirms that it remains as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, as amended.

 

Besides adding and revising disclosure in response to the Staff’s comments, the Company has also included (i) its consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, and (ii) other information and data to reflect recent developments.

 

In addition, the Company has engaged Citibank, N.A to act as the depositary bank for the American Depositary Shares of the Company and the parties have agreed that the deposit agreement will not contain an arbitration provision. Accordingly, the Company has deleted the related disclosure from the Amendment No.3 to Draft Registration Statement.

 

The Staff’s comments are repeated below in bold and are followed by the Company’s responses. We have included page references in the Amendment No.3 to Draft Registration Statement where the language addressing a particular comment appears. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Amendment No.3 to Draft Registration Statement.
