Quanjude Peking Roast Duck Restaurant celebrated the 150th anniversary of its founding on July in its Qianmen branch, the oldest of its restaurants.
Established on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month in 1864, the first Quan Ju De, which was then located on Qianmen Dajie, started an extraordinary development. It has grown from an anonymous Peking roast duck shop into a group with nearly 100 member enterprises. It is also one of few traditional restaurant enterprises in China to be listed on China's stock market.
