Tien Chu Ve-Tsin Chemical Limited (Chinese : 天厨味精 ; pinyin : Tiānchú Wèijīng monosodium glutamate (MSG).[1]
Founded in Shanghai in 1921, the firm also had operations in Hong Kong (established in 1937). Wu Zhifan became CEO of Tien Chu Ve-Tsin.[2]
Following the establishment of the People's Republic of China , Tien Chu Ve-Tsin became a state owned enterprise. It is currently owned by Shanghai Industrial Holdings .[3]
The Hong Kong unit became Tien Chu Ve-Tsin Chemical Limited of Hong Kong in the 1950s, but it reunited with the mainland parent firm in 1981. The factory was located in Tokwawan, Kowloon .[1]
Tien Chu was awarded a gold prize at the 1933 World's Fair in Chicago .[1]
Tien Chu products are now found overseas in Chinese supermarkets and sold in plastic bags or blue and gold tins.[1]
The Tokwawan location closed and demolished in 1999 to make way for Sky Tower residential block.[4]
Rival and larger MSG maker is Ajinomoto of Japan .[1]
