LKK Health Products Group

LKK Health Products Group

Founded in 1994 as the investment and health-products vehicle for the Lee family, LKK Health Products Group is the sibling enterprise to the globally dominant Lee Kum Kee sauce brand. The group's commercial engine is Infinitus, a multi-billion-dollar direct-selling company specializing in traditional Chinese herbal health products — immune boosters, herbal supplements, and skincare lines rooted in the family's century-old relationship with Chinese botanicals. The wealth originates from Lee Kum Kee, the 1888-founded condiment maker that turned oyster sauce into a global pantry staple and remains one of Asia's most closely held family fortunes. LKKHPG deploys capital across three distinct pillars. The primary pillar, Infinitus, occupies a dominant China direct-selling position with manufactured products and a proprietary Chinese-herb plantation network. The second pillar is a trophy real-estate portfolio: the group owns Infinitus Plazas in Guangzhou, Shanghai, and Hong Kong, jointly acquired Shanghai Corporate Avenue 3 with Vanke Property, and made global headlines by purchasing London's 'Walkie-Talkie' building at 20 Fenchurch Street for a then-record £1.3 billion pounds in 2017 (per the Financial Times, 2017). The third pillar, Happiness Capital, operates as a venture-capital unit investing globally in food-tech, biotech, and sustainability startups — a bet that the family's future lies beyond its legacy condiment and supplement lines. The group remains tightly steered by Sammy Lee, Chairman and YPO member, who is the brother of Charlie Lee, Chairman of the separate Lee Kum Kee Sauce Group. While headcount is not publicly disclosed, the group's footprint spans China, the UK, and India through physical assets and a dense Infinitus distribution network. In 2017 the firm closed on the £1.3 billion acquisition of 20 Fenchurch Street, a transaction that placed the family office's property appetite firmly in the crosshairs of Central London landlords. LKKHPG is structurally unusual because it is neither a pure family office nor a conventional conglomerate — it functions as a corporate holding company with a large operating business (Infinitus), a real-asset division, and a venture arm all reporting into a single family-owner. This architecture allows the Lee family to generate active operating income through direct selling while simultaneously compounding capital through global real estate and VC, a model that distances them from the standard passive-pooled-capital family-office template.
