Company Background

Da Kong in its direct Mandarin translation has a very vague meaning.  "Da" means "big" and "kong" can mean "space" or "leisure time," among other meanings.  To me, the company Da Kong means big space, and more specifically it translates to me as big sky.  The idea for this trading/consulting company was conceived on a hiking trip in Kinabalu National Park on Malaysian Borneo-- in the freshest air and in the clearest mind.  In these environs, I came to realize that it is a big world in which we live, with a big sky encompassing boundless opportunities. 

Upon my return to China from Borneo, I decided that I would carry forth with the creation of the company and it would, in fact, be named Da Kong; the Mandarin name acknowledges our presence in China and the meaning acknowledges the world of opportunities, the bigger picture, and the big sky.  In the spirit of this particular hiking trip, I have come to believe that as we carry out the business functions of our daily lives, we need to remain conscious of our personal health and happiness.  At Da Kong, we strive toward these goals alongside those we share and pursue with our clients and suppliers.
