Weigang, a time-honored Chinese brand from Jiangsu, is renowned for its dairy products. With a history dating back to 1928, it carries nearly a century of national dairy heritage, symbolizing freshness, nutrition, and safety.
Brand Story
The history of Weigang dates back to 1928, when patriotic industrialist Chen Diaoyuan and others founded 'Weigang Pasture' in the Weigang area of Nanjing. It was one of the earliest modern dairy farms in China. The name 'Weigang' means 'defending the hill', symbolizing national self-reliance. During the War of Resistance, the pasture provided nutritional support to the front lines, witnessing the hardships and glory of the national dairy industry. After the founding of New China, Weigang Dairy became a pillar of milk supply in Nanjing and Jiangsu, passing down the philosophy of 'fresh, nutritious, and safe' from generation to generation. The brand not only carries urban memories but also stands as a benchmark in East China's dairy industry with its promise of 'cows by your side, milk even fresher'.
“Cows by your side, milk even fresher.”
