Luk Fook Holdings (International) Limited (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”), founded by a group of jewellery specialists, is one of the leading jewellery retailers in Hong Kong and Mainland. With the first Lukfook Jewellery shop established in North Point, Hong Kong in 1991, it has always been upholding the service motto of “Exquisite Craftsmanship, Quality Services and Customer Orientation”. In May 1997, the Group was listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (“Stock Exchange”) (stock code: 0590).
The Group principally engages in the sourcing, designing, wholesaling, trademark licensing and retailing of a variety of gold and platinum jewellery and gem-set jewellery products. With a total of approximately 3,380 points of sale in 11 countries and regions currently across Hong Kong, Macau, Mainland, Malaysia, Cambodia, the Philippines, Laos, Thailand, the United States, Canada and Australia, the Group will continue to identify new business opportunities in the international market and actively pursue further development in China and overseas markets in response to its corporate vision, “Brand of Hong Kong, Sparkling the World”.
On 12 January 2024, the Group successfully acquired the controlling stake in 3DG Holdings (International) Limited (“3DG Holdings”) (stock code: 2882), making it as a subsidiary of the Company. This not only bolstered the Group’s control over the “3DG Jewellery” brand but also advanced the realisation of its multi-brand strategy, resulting in expanded market share and heightened competitiveness. With a diversified portfolio of brands, including Lukfook Jewellery, 3DG Jewellery, Heirloom Fortune, Goldstyle, Lukfook Joaillerie and Love LUKFOOK JEWELLERY, the Group commits to crafting the finest jewellery and providing quality services for customers.
The Group fully recognises that sustainability governance is a key factor in driving long-term success and value. It continuously optimises its environmental, social and governance (ESG) management systems, and commits to integrating ESG principles into its corporate planning and operational decision-making process, which has received widespread recognition in the industry. The Group has signed the “ESG Pledge” to make action-taking commitment, and has also been awarded the "Hong Kong Corporate Governance and ESG Excellence Awards", demonstrating the Group's outstanding performance in sustainability practices.
Since the establishment of the first shop in Mainland in 1994, the total number of shops located in Mainland has rapidly grown to approximately 3,280 by now. While the Group has installed many shops in the first and second tier cities of Mainland, it is also keen on branching out in promising lower-tier cities for further expansion. The Group will also make a strategic move to open flagship stores in prominent cities to strengthen our penetration into the Mainland market.
To further enhance cost effectiveness and production efficiency, in 2003, the Group has set up the "Lukfook Jewellery Cultural & Creative Industry Park" in Nansha District, Guangzhou City, with a total site area of over 35,000 square meters. Having its own large-scale jewellery processing plant not only ensures a stable goods supply, but also allows more effective product quality control, as well as enables the Group to carry out a "one-stop production model" and offer quality products to its jewellery shops worldwide. To enhance cost-effectiveness and production efficiency, and cope with its expanding retail network, the Group further expanded the Nansha Plant to double its annual production capacity. The jewellery processing plant attained ISO 9001 Quality Management Systems Requirements and ISO 14001 Environmental Management System certifications in 2008 and 2009 respectively, and has been awarded the honour of “Hong Kong – Guangdong Cleaner Production Partners (Manufacturing)” and “Excellence Enterprise of National Cleaner Production Audit in Guangzhou” for its international level quality assurance system and professionally recognized product quality.
The Group exercises strict quality control and is meticulous from raw materials procurement, production to after-sales services. In 1996, China Gems Laboratory Limited ("CGL"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Group which is operated and managed by experienced and certified gemologists, was established to provide services including authentication and grading of diamonds, authentication of jadeite jade and coloured gemstones, and quality testing for jewellery. In 2005, CGL succeeded in applying for accreditation by the Hong Kong Accreditation Service and became one of the first accredited laboratories that conformed to ISO/IEC 17025 and obtained the accreditation in jadeite jade testing. Subsequently, in 2009, it obtained the accreditation in diamond authentication and grading. In 2015, CGL obtained ISO 11426 accreditation in gold fineness testing and was authorised to issue internationally recognised gold testing report. It is the only laboratory in Hong Kong that meets the requirements of accreditation in jadeite jade testing, diamond authentication and grading, and gold fineness testing. Besides, it is the first laboratory in Hong Kong to obtain Chinese national standards GB/T9288 accreditation in gold testing, affirming its international level quality assurance system and professionally recognised product quality standard.
In 2013, the Group set up Victoria Gemological Institute Limited, which principally engages in jewellery authentication and professional training. With branch offices established in Mainland, the institute provides services for the jewellery sector and customers. The Victoria Gemological Institute has passed the ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation of the ANSI-ASQ National Accreditation Board (ANAB) and the accreditation of the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC) and is authorised to issue internationally recognised reports for diamond grading, jadeite jade, ruby, sapphire and emerald testing.
In 2015, the Group became a sightholder of De Beers Group and has further demonstrated the Group’s leading position in the jewellery industry.
