Introduction
Our founder Mr Tan Kim Pheow migrated from Chaonan (South China) in the late 1930s and worked as a marine foodstuffs trader through the post-war tumultuous years. Dismayed by the unhygienic handling of bird’s nest, he was determined to do better. With Mrs Tan, they cleaned nests tirelessly beside oil lamps, weighed and packed each lot personally, insisting on the right colour, taste and yield for his fledging business. Business grew and in 1957, Dragon Brand Bird’s Nest was founded, named after the Dragon for prosperity and longevity.
Till today, our bird’s nests are harvested by hand responsibly from the imposing sea caves off Yogyakarta, Indonesia’s spiritual center and one of the region’s most important breeding grounds for wild costal swiftlets.
