About Shanghai Jahwa United Co., Ltd.
Shanghai Jahwa is one of the oldest daily chemical companies in China. Its predecessor was Hong Kong Guangsheng Co., Ltd. founded in 1898. After a century of development, it was listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in 2001 and was the first listed cosmetics company in China. Adhering to the corporate core values of integrity, pragmatism, and win-win; with the corporate vision of becoming the best provider of beauty, skin care, personal care, and home care, and the corporate mission of making everyone beautiful and healthy, and making every family clean and happy, Shanghai Jahwa attaches great importance to the construction of its own brand. It owns many famous Chinese brands such as "Herborist", "Liu Shen", "Mejiajing", "Yuze", "Shuangmei", "Gaofu", "Qichu", "Jia'an", etc. It also owns brands such as "Youyi" and "Yashuang" that have accompanied the memories of generations. In the past hundred years, Shanghai Jahwa has led many brands to achieve great results and become a leader in the daily chemical industry. Maxam, which was born in 1962, was once the number one cosmetics brand in China. The first bottle of toilet water launched by Liushen in 1990 quickly won the first place as soon as it came out, and continues to hold more than 70% of the market share to this day, becoming the number one summer personal care brand. "Herborist" has also become China's first cosmetics brand that combines traditional Chinese medicine with modern technology. It has also become the only brand to obtain European cosmetics certification. In 2008, it successfully entered the mainstream markets of France, Italy, Spain and other European developed countries, setting a precedent for Chinese cosmetics. Jahwa's other brands, such as Liushen and Maxam, are also following Herborist's footsteps and actively going abroad.
