Brand Story
Founded during the Guangxu reign of the Qing Dynasty (c. 1875-1908) by a Shandong immigrant surnamed Wang, Zhengyanglou began as a small tavern in Heilongjiang. It later became famous for its sauced pork and pickled vegetables. The founder emphasized premium ingredients and meticulous craftsmanship, gradually developing a distinctive flavor. Zhengyanglou witnessed the integration of immigrant development and local food culture in Heilongjiang, blending Shandong cuisine with northeastern characteristics. By the Republican era, it had gained regional fame, with products sold widely. After 1949, it underwent public-private partnership, preserving its techniques. Today, as a China Time-honored Brand, it continues to uphold traditional skills and promote Chinese culinary culture.
