The group is currently chaired by 88-year-old Lee Man Tat, who passed on the rein of the mainstay sauce business to his son Charlie. The younger Lee now oversees an extensive distribution network in more than 100 countries that's supported by five factories in China, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Los Angeles. Another son Sammy heads group company LKK Health Products. All three of his other children, Eddy, David and Elizabeth, have worked in the Hong Kong-based business. In August 2017 the family expanded into Europe with the $1.7 billion acquisition of a skyscraper known as the Walkie Talkie, whose three-floor rooftop Sky Garden has become a popular attraction in central London.
