Minneapolis, MN | Taipei, Taiwan

Eric Fung is a founding partner of Bandicoot, and serves as the managing partner for our Taipei office. Eric started his career in law, practicing corporate finance, mergers/acquisitions, and energy law at Constellation Energy Group, DLA Piper US LLP, and Dickstein Shapiro LLP. In 2011, he became an entrepreneur completing a leveraged buyout of a 37,000 square foot supermarket and in-store restaurant in Minneapolis called United Noodles Marketplace.

During his tenure, he successfully accelerated his businesses to sustained growth. His financial acumen and skill in developing high-performing teams resulted in a 350% growth in sales from 2011 to 2020. He also opened other successful business units and locations, including a Woodbury location and a wholesale division. In 2015, he was named one of Minnesota’s “40 Under 40” for his leadership at United Noodles.

In order to solidify the financial health of his companies, Mr. Fung also developed sophisticated bookkeeping, accounts payable, and other workflow systems that eventually led to his becoming a partner of the Minnesota accounting firm AccountPro LLC. In 2019, it merged with and was rebranded as bandicoot LLC, and has over 80 clients.

Eric has a passion for talent development, and driving diversity in both teams and thought. He is an innovative, entrepreneurially-minded leader, who leads with a long-term view on vision and strategy.

In his spare time, Eric loves cooking, working out, and playing Smash Bros. with his nine year-old son. His most firmly held belief is that every dog is The Best Dog.
