Brand Story
Defuzhai traces its origins to Jiangxi Province, with its founding date not officially verified but, according to local historical records and folk traditions, dating back to the mid-Qing Dynasty (around 1800 AD). During that period, Jiangxi thrived in commerce and culture, and the founder of Defuzhai (name yet to be confirmed) established a workshop in the Gan-Po region, specializing in pastries and preserved meats. Guided by the business philosophy 'Virtue first, fortune follows,' the brand gradually earned a reputation among locals. Through generations of inheritance, Defuzhai blended local Jiangxi ingredients with culinary techniques from north and south, creating a unique flavor profile that became a staple for festivals and hospitality. Its products not only satisfy the palate but also carry the folk memories of Jiangxi, serving as a microcosm of the region's food culture.
