The Olympic Games are back and, with them, sport is once again the talk of town. However, for Lee Kum Kee, one of the largest sauce manufacturers in Hong Kong, sport is not simply a one-off event. We see sport as a vital element in uniting and strengthening the bonds among staff. Our long-standing commitment to dragon boat events has seen our staff teams successfully work together to win a number of prizes.
Founded in 1888 in Guangdong province by Lee Kum-sheung, Lee Kum Kee has grown from a local family business into a multinational firm that employs more than 8,000 staff in branches on mainland China, North America, Europe and Southeast Asia.
Approach
Pragmatism, integrity, considering others' interests and constant entrepreneurship are the four core values of our company.
I think it is important for our staff to balance health, family and career, which is why we are so engaged in dragon boat racing. We believe good health and a harmonious family life are the two driving forces behind a successful career.
We tell our staff all the time to consider others' interests. If everyone is able to stand in another's shoes and care about the feelings of others, then everyone will benefit.
