Tai Ping History

With a rich history dating back to 1885, Chan Fook On immigrated to New Zealand to mark the beginning of the Chan Family’s history in New Zealand.

In 1892, Chan Fook On established his first market place at 33 Manning St, Wellington under Yee Chong Wing and Co. Providing essentials for Asian settlers the store was a home for new immigrants who felt a sense of security in a familiar environment.

It wasn’t until the 1980s when Peter Chan carried on the tradition to establish the first Tai Ping Trading. With deregulation of importation licenses and a new wave of immigration in 1989 renewed opportunity appeared and the business grew.

Today, the business has grown under the same family ethics and continues to grow with a strong importation network and supermarkets throughout Auckland.
