Tongrentang to double overseas outlets

The traditional Chinese medicine seller Tongrentang is aiming to double the number of its retail outlets overseas to 100 by the end of this year.

Ding Yongling, deputy general manager of the Beijing Tongrentang Group and general manager of the group's Hong Kong-based operation, said the company's expansion plans include tapping the market outside of the Chinese mainland for the next three years.

Ding said the company, with a 343-year history, will open not just new outlets for their products abroad but also museums to showcase the best of traditional Chinese medicine. The company will also conduct lectures and seminars on traditional medicines.
