Amoy Food Limited is a manufacturer of cooking sauces and condiments in Hong Kong. Its products, which now include foodstuffs such as frozen foods and instant foods for heating in a microwave oven, are sold around the world. It was acquired in 2018 by CITIC Capital, a subsidiary of the CITIC Group.
Its former factory site in Ngau Tau Kok was sold in the 1970s and has since been turned into an apartment complex called the Amoy Gardens.
Etymology
Amoy (Шаблон:Lang) is an English romanisation of the Min Nan pronunciation of the name of the city in Fujian province, China known in Mandarin as Xiamen.
History
In 1908, Tao Fa, the predecessor of the company, was founded in Xiamen for producing soy sauce and soy milk. In 1928, Amoy was set up in Hong Kong.
In a 1947 advertisement, the company was named as Amoy Canning Corporation, Ltd. (Шаблон:Zh) with factory in Ngau Tau Kok and head office at Bonham Strand in Sheung Wan.
In 1977, Sime Darby group acquired 50% of Amoy Canning.[1]
In 1980, Hang Lung Development acquired 63% of Amoy Canning Corp. (HK) Ltd[2]
In 1983, fifty percent of Amoy Food was acquired by Pillsbury.[3]
In 1987, a manufacturing plant was set up in Tai Po Industrial Estate in Tai Po.
In 1988, it was reported to be the largest soy sauce maker in the area, producing 6,000 tonnes a year.[3]
In 1991, Amoy became wholly owned by the French dairy products company Danone.
On 12 January 2006, Danone sold the company to Ajinomoto of Japan.
In 2013, Amoy frozen food's factory in China was moved to Tai Po Industrial Estate in Hong Kong.
In 2018, Ajinomoto sold the company to CITIC Group of China.[4]
