Brand Story
Founded in 1890 during the Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty, Pangao Shou was established in Guangzhou by brothers Pan Baishi and Pan Yingshi from Kaiping, Guangdong. Initially named 'Pangao Shou Medicine Shop', it focused on selling wax pills. After a change in management, Pan Yusheng took over and improved the formula, creating the famous Chuanbei Loquat Syrup known for its lung-moistening and cough-suppressing properties. Through vigorous promotion, Pangao Shou gained widespread recognition and became a well-known pharmacy in Guangzhou during the Republic of China era. Its products, made with genuine ingredients and proven efficacy, earned the trust of the public. The rise of Pangao Shou reflects the profound heritage of Lingnan traditional Chinese medicine and serves as a microcosm of modern Guangdong's industrial and commercial development.
