Charity Programmes

The Group donates its products and coupons to over a hundred of social service organisations every year and supported “The Community Chest Skip Lunch Day”with food coupons for ten consecutive years. It also helps non-governmental organisations to promote themselves and raise donations through setting up donation boxes and displaying promotional materials in its retail shops.

Surplus Food Donation
A number of Hung Fook Tong retail shops have continued to provide surplus food to the less fortunate. The Group has also offered festive food to several food banks, including Food Angel, Feeding Hong Kong and Food Grace during the year.
