Brand Story
Daqiaodao is a time-honored halal food brand in Tianjin, with origins tracing back to the late Qing Dynasty (around the end of the 19th century). At that time, Tianjin, as a major commercial port in the north, was a melting pot of diverse culinary cultures. The founder, whose name is yet to be verified, opened a pastry shop in the old city, specializing in halal pastries. Through meticulous ingredient selection and exquisite craftsmanship, the shop gradually earned a stellar reputation. The brand name derives from its location near Daqiaodao (literally 'Big Bridge Road') in the old city, now the Nanshi area. Over generations, Daqiaodao has upheld traditional handcrafted methods, blending northern and southern pastry techniques to create a unique Jin-style flavor. Its products are not only favored gifts during festivals but also carriers of urban memory and halal food culture, making it an iconic symbol of Tianjin's food heritage.
