Symphony Holdings Limited (“Symphony” or the “Company”) is a company listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited since 1995 with stock code 01223. The Company is principally engaged in the manufacturing and marketing of athletic and leisure footwear, and diversified into the distributing, retailing and branding of internationally renowned brands.

The Group’s OEM business remains profitable since record. To improve its performance, we have invested in the construction of manufacturing complexes, adopted modern management technique, and put emphasis on human resources development, quality control, research and development. These steps enable the Group to meet rising challenges in the global footwear market.

The Group has diversified its business into branding and retailing. Our first investment in retail brands was a participation in the buy-out of Converse, which went into bankruptcy in 2001. It was rapidly turned around and was sold to Nike profitably. Converse remains an important client of our contract manufacturing business. In late 2004, we invested in a company which became the licensee of Reebok in China. This became so successful that it was sold in 2006 to Adidas/Reebok, again profitably. The Group is currently invested in brands including top ladies fashion footwear brand AEE Italy, a leisure and sports shoes brand Pony and a respected brand of men’s apparel in the USA, Haggar. Other than that, the Group is presently the sole distributor and licensee of Speedo in China and Taiwan and that of Berghaus in China.
