GENERAL

 

Patek Trading Co. Ltd., formed in 1986, was formerly jointly owned by Mr. and Mrs. Li Wing Tang and their friends.  In 1994, all the shares were transferred to the couple’s investment arm, Rickat Investment Ltd., a firm registered in the British Virgin Islands.  Since then, the subject has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rickat Investment Ltd.

Besides its main office and laboratory, the subject also owns large warehouse to serve its customers with on time delivery.  Since its establishment, the subject has been focusing on trading of textile dyestuffs and auxiliaries imported from all over the world.  It is the distributor of BASF, Chematex, DyStar, Everlight, ICI, Inolar, Stahl, Yorkshire, etc. and is one of the largest dyestuff importers in Hong Kong.  Products sold include reactive dyes, acid dyes, direct dyes, cationic dyes, disperse dyes, and VAT dyes.

The subject shows its expertise by providing professional before and after sales services to its customers.  Technical advice is supported by its internal laboratory while financial support to customers is backed by healthy banking arrangement and credit control.  To cope with the mass relocation of dyeing factories to China, which happened for more than 10 years in the past, the subject has established its subsidiaries in South China.  Processing plants, warehouses, and laboratories are also set up to diversify business to different parts of China.

 

The subject is also the distributor of many significant dyestuffs manufactured by world famous manufacturers.  The followings are some of the significant brands:-

On the whole, having a history of over 22 years in Hong Kong, the subject is considered good for normal business engagements.
