Umbrella maker Leung So Kee was founded in 1885 during the Qing dynasty’s rule in Canton, now called Guangzhou in mainland China. Almost 140 years later, the company is still going strong in Hong Kong. Its owners say its success is based on one promise - that its products will always be fixed free of charge, for life.

Diligent hard working umbrella maker.
A little bit of a translation error at 0:52. Instead of "It's not just the customer's lifetime, as long as the umbrella is there, we'll fix it" He actually said "the repair service is for the lifetime of the umbrella, not the lifetime of the customer".
I lived in HK for 15 years and never knew about this shop. I will definitely pick one up when I visit come this September. Thanks for the heads up! Cheers.
It's a relatively famous brand for locals, especially for the older generations. Even back then they weren't cheap
Hong Kong is a small island and yet you lived there for 15 years but you didn't know about this 🌂☂️ shop, that means you're a person who seldom step out of your home and like to keep to yourself. 😁😆
I have had my umbrella from leung so kee for over 40 years. It still works and I cherish it. I am glad the shop is still around.
I never knew about this place. Now I have to go and get an umbrella. Thanks for showcasing the business. I'd like to see more like this company.
I have one of these umbrellas and thought I almost lost it. It will be one of the last things I ever got with my mother before she passed away in March 2024.
So sorry for your loss.
RIP ❤✝️🙏🏼

Love these videos supporting local businesses!
As a Mainland Chinese I never heard of the words 'election' and 'protest' until I saw the umbrella movement.😥😥😥
Wonderful work😊
Such a wonderful story.
Quality made by hand, lifetime warranty and made in China! What's not to like?!
Great shop and a great variety of umbrella. I attented one of their workshops which was very informative and cordial atmosphere, between longtime customer and new customer. It was fun! 😊 Even couples attented the workshop. I got mine and so happy with it. If you have time to attend the workshop, it is great to know how to make your umbrella. 😊
President Xi said I ordered No Black people enter to shop in Chinese Supermarket in Nigeria. 🤣😂
I'm going to be traveling to HK next week & I've just found my travel souvenir... thanx
I got a 24 inch blue umbrella that can also be used for sun protection, all for only 588HKD
simply amazing! 👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love his business strategy and environmentally friendly, too! I’ll definitely check out this place when I visit in the summer.
one hardworking umbrella maker!
I’d love to own one of this type of umbrella. However, I am a person who always lose umbrellas. With that price, name and phone number should be hand embroidered on the umbrella. 😂
I believe you can "engrave" your name on the umbrella cause they made all of them by hand. 😂
they are so nice
I would offer lifetime warranty as well I like see if my grandparents stuff. Still out there
From generations to generations by maker n customers👍
Blessed to righteous n merciful
🙏💖
Is this a charity organization?
Awesome 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Assuming that the umbrellas are of the highest quality is a mistake. I would not want to make a trip to the shop every five minutes. As well, what would I do to protect my superb coiffure during the repair process?
❤❤
There's a Properly Competitive understanding of Capitalism hey? Cheers.
That's such a waste of money to use it once and then throw it away.

Umbrella with lifetime warranty! That's the only thing I buy from China 🇨🇳.
They won't sell any 🌂umbrella to you even you offer a high price because you're an anti-China bot. 😁😆

oh wait, I forgot that the phone you are using is from your employer.
Which means you have nothing because most products are made in China. 😂😂😂
Thanks for confirming that you are poor and have nothing 🤭🤭🤭

Here is the prove friends, you need brand new German partners in business, those who have the cycling hobby, they invented the...anti rain outfit, no need to get any umbella but...put it on, having safe coat that can face any rain water...assault. Umbrellas are ..just for cute touristic gadgets and foreign atractions, umbrellas are rather protection against solar radiations than rain...think about it friends 🎉❤🎉
Anorak and raincoats are a better option for most. In south africa we have really bad rain and wind at the same time, even kids school bags come with a special compartment for there anorak and raincoats
You should speak Chinese not Cantonese, I doubt you know how to speak it

The humble umbrella.
Invented by the Ancient Chinese.
The caste-system, from little-D-boi's country.
Lucky only for themselves.
You must be born as a little-D-boi, to enjoy it.

Lifetime warranty is to protect the environment, but it's hard to continue, too expensive !
I don't think so. Truly environmentally conscious people are rare like a purple moon. This is just another marketing strategy. 😂
A must buy for anyone catching the Go bar Festival live action in 🇮🇳👍
