Founded in 1956 by the Kadoorie brothers, Tai Ping Carpets rose to prominence over the following decades, even gracing historical events like the 1997 handover ceremony. In 2016, AnneMarie Evans spoke with company Chairman Nicholas Colfer to find out why the Kadoories chose to launch a carpet venture in hot, humid Hong Kong. The conversation also uncovers interesting details of the company’s evolution, from its innovative manufacturing techniques to how its management pioneered flexible work hours back in the 1950s.
