Lee Kum Kee Hoisin Sauce

Lee Kum Kee Hoisin Sauce is a globally recognized condiment known for its sweet and savory profile, essential in Cantonese cuisine. The brand was founded in 1888 by Lee Kum Sheung in Qiaotou, Guangdong Province, China, after he accidentally invented oyster sauce.

Today, the Lee Kum Kee Group remains a family-owned business headquartered in Hong Kong. While the company operates production facilities in several locations including Xinhui, Huangpu, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Los Angeles to serve global markets, the majority of its traditional sauces sold internationally originate from its primary Chinese manufacturing hubs. The brand is managed under the Lee Kum Kee Company Limited, which has grown from a small family shop into a multinational enterprise spanning over 100 countries.
