Eu Yan Sang International

The Heritage of 'Caring for Mankind'

Eu Yan Sang's legacy began in 1879 when its founder, Eu Kong, established a small dispensary in the mining town of Gopeng, Perak. Driven by a compassionate desire to alleviate the suffering of Chinese tin miners addicted to opium and plagued by ill health, he provided quality Chinese medicine and herbal remedies. He named the shop 'Yan Sang,' a Cantonese term that literally translates to 'caring for mankind.'

A Journey of Resilience and Expansion

Following the sudden passing of Eu Kong in 1890, his only son, Eu Tong Sen, took over the family business at the age of 21. Despite initial hardships, Eu Tong Sen demonstrated astute foresight, expanding the medical hall's reach into Singapore, Hong Kong, and across Malaya. He firmly branded the business with the family name, establishing Eu Yan Sang as a household name synonymous with trust and quality by the early 20th century.

Commitment to Innovation and Science

Under the stewardship of successive generations, particularly through the modernization efforts of Richard Eu, the company transitioned from traditional medicine halls into a modern, integrated TCM enterprise. Today, Eu Yan Sang integrates ancient wisdom with rigorous scientific validation, utilizing 'Herb Fingerprinting' technology to ensure product efficacy and safety. Key achievements include:

• Establishing an extensive distribution network of over 170 retail outlets and 30 TCM clinics in Singapore, Malaysia, and Hong Kong.
• Pioneering the modernization of TCM products, such as encapsulated formulas and bottled bird's nest, for the contemporary consumer.
• Conducting continuous research collaborations with tertiary institutes in Singapore, Hong Kong, and China to validate and improve TCM treatments.

"For Eu Yan Sang, corporate giving is aligned with the mission of the company, which is 'caring for mankind'."
