The event was graced by Mr John Lee Ka-chiu, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, who delivered a keynote speech. Melchers Hong Kong was presented with the Centenary Membership Award, recognising its long-standing contribution to Hong Kong\u2019s commercial development.<br><br><strong>Historical Membership<\/strong><br>Melchers first established its presence in Hong Kong in 1866. Just three years later, in 1869, it became a member of HKGCC. Since then, the company has maintained uninterrupted membership for 157 years, making it one of the Chamber\u2019s founding members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Contribution to Hong Kong<\/strong><br>Throughout its history, Melchers has witness and played an active role in Hong Kong\u2019s transformation from a traditional trading port into a global financial hub. Its involvement highlights the company\u2019s commitment to supporting international trade and fostering business cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Melchers Group Milestone<\/strong><br>The award coincides with another landmark achievement: 160 years of Melchers in China. From its base in Hong Kong, the company expanded into mainland China, building operations across industrial machinery, consumer goods, and healthcare. Today, Melchers continues to act as a vital bridge between China and global markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Future Outlook<\/strong><br>Looking ahead, Melchers plans to leverage Hong Kong\u2019s strategic position and dynamic business ecosystem. The company aims to strengthen China-Europe trade links, deepen regional economic exchanges, and expand its footprint through innovation and compliance. The Centenary Membership Award not only celebrates its past achievements but also reinforces its commitment to shaping future trade and cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To
