Factory plans of A Hing Cheung Weaving and Dyeing Works Limited

A Hing Cheung Weaving and Dyeing Works Limited was founded in 1936 by Cheung Chung-kan and Cheung Hoi-leung at Tai Street of Kowloon City. To expand the business, a branch factory was opened at 31-35 Lung Kong Road. During the Japanese Occupation of Hong Kong, the factory ceased operations and was relocated to 2-4 Junction Road. Production resumed in 1945, and in 1946 the government commissioned the factory to weave fabric and supplied the cotton yarn. In 1947 production was fully recovered. The factory had 8 storeys with a floor area of 8,000 sq. ft. It produced a variety of fabrics including woolen yarns, fleeces, canvases, checked fabric, woven fabric, and cohesive fabric.
