About WANT WANT CHINA Company

Historical Overview In May 1962, Yilan Food Industry Co., Ltd. ("Yilan Food") was established, primarily engaged in the production of canned agricultural products for export. In 1983, we partnered with Iwatsuka Confectionery Co., Ltd. ("Iwatsuka"), one of Japan's leading rice cracker manufacturers, to jointly develop Taiwan's rice cracker market. Starting in 1983, we began producing and marketing products under the "Want Want" brand. In 1989, the "Want Want" brand entered the Chinese mainland market. In 1992, we expanded into mainland China and established our first subsidiary in Hunan Province. Over the following years, we successfully evolved from a single‑product rice cracker company into a diversified food and beverage enterprise. Our subsidiary, Want Want Holdings Limited ("Want Want Holdings"), was listed on the Main Board of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited ("SGX") in May 1996. Subsequently, it diversified its operations into healthcare, hospitality, real estate, and other investment ventures. Want Want Holdings delisted from the SGX in September 2007. Following this, a restructuring was undertaken, which included: (i) establishing China Want Want Holdings Limited ("the Company") as a new investment holding company for all of its food and beverage businesses; and (ii) spinning off its healthcare, hospitality, real estate, and other investment operations, transferring them to San Want Holdings Limited ("Shenwang") as of December 31, 2007, and further divesting through a dividend-in-kind distribution of Shenwang shares to the then‑existing shareholders of Want Want. On March 26, 2008, the Company was officially listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("HKEX") ("the Listing"). On April 28, 2009, our Taiwan Depositary Receipts were listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation, and they were voluntarily delisted on October 15, 2013. In 2020, construction commenced on our Vietnamese production base, strengthening the Group's overseas market expansion and future strategic positioning. In 2022, the newly established factory in Tien Giang Province, Vietnam, began operations, marking the first step in Want Want's journey toward realizing its vision of "A World Dream."
