Our History
大成香油顏料行的成立可追溯至1910年時在廣州的上池行，由清末舉人區錫魁先生創立。後來區熾基先生及其兒子區建業先生等將生意南遷至香港並易名大成行，經營食用香油顏料。
大成香油顏料行至今已有110多年，當中記錄了三代人的血汗史。如有興趣，歡迎細閱下方的時序表。
After graduating first in class from Guangzhou Army Medic School(see above picture), Qing Dynasty First-degree scholar Mr. Au Shek Fui decided to practice medicine in Guangzhou and opened a clinic and a pharmacy named Shang Chee Hong. At the time, Shang Chee Hong also sold "Shang Chee Mosquito Coil" and "Shang Chee Beef Flavored Alcohol" made with family recipes. These two products were once very popular in Guangzhou.
As Shang Chee Hong pharmacy continued making profit, Mr. Au Shek Fui took the opportunity to expand Shang Chee Hong brand, opening two more stores: one in Guangzhou focusing on industrial chemicals, another in Hong Kong focusing on medical equipment. Later, Mr. Au Ci Ki (see above picture), Mr. Au Shek Fui's second son, inherited the Shang Chee Hong Industrial Chemicals store.
As Mr. Au Ci Ki is fluent in English, he was able to quickly establish strong relationship with multiple international chemical companies, including US-based Mobil corporation and UK-based Bush Boake Allen. Mr. Au Ci Ki also appointed his 20-year old eldest son Mr. Au Kin Yip (see above picture), who started working full-time at Shang Chee Hong at 9, to be the general manager. The father-and-son combo worked together tirelessly to build Shang Chee Hong Industrial Chemicals into one of the leading companys in Guangzhou chemical industry.
隨著香港由工業主導轉型至服務性行業主導，大成行創辦人區建業先生（見圖與妻子李慧霞女士合照）也決定為公司轉型，集中開拓香港的食用香油顏料行業。正因如此，大成行的商號亦轉為大成香油顏料行。
