"Huoba" means let's get on fire (Lanzhou dialect).

The "Huo Bar" catering company was established in 2001. It is a chain enterprise integrating small hot pot, barbecue, mass-selling KTV and shabu-shabu bars. The "Huo Bar" trademark and name were registered with the state in 2002. The Trademark Office applied for nationwide registration, and the company’s chairman, Mr. Lu Haijun, has since become the sole owner of the “Huoba” trademark and name nationwide.
