Kowloon Dairy milk

Kowloon Dairy Limited is one of three dairy producers in Hong Kong.[citation needed] It was established by George Ahwee and Rudy Choy in 1940.[1][2]

History

The Kowloon Dairy was founded by George Ahwee and Rudy Choy joined in 1940. Initially there were only 30 employees and the company could only supply fresh milk to the northern part of the Kowloon Peninsula. The company expanded following additional investment by Li Lan Sang, a horse owner.[3]

In the early years, the Kowloon Dairy Limited's factory was located where the Choi Wan Estate is presently situated. In 1972, the Hong Kong government decided to reclaim the land in order to build public estates for its citizens and Kowloon Dairy decided to move its factory to Tuen Mun and the Farm to Yuen Long. The farm expanded to 21,000 square foot with more than 300 cows.[2]

In 2013, there were almost 500 employees working for the Kowloon Dairy Limited,[1] with distribution across Hong Kong and Macau. At that time the company was producing different varieties of dairy products, including milk and ice cream.[1][4] In 1992, Kowloon Dairy Limited entered the Chinese market and formed a joint company named the Kowloon Dairy (Guangzhou) Limited with local dairy company Fengxing Milk. Production in China started in 1994; now, dairy products from Kowloon Dairy Limited can be found in Guangdong, Hainan, Fujian, Heilongjiang and Yunnan.[3]
