Quong Yee Wo & Co. was a family-run store and import-export firm established ca. 1898 by Do Chung Leung. It sold Chinese fancy goods and groceries and has been passed down to several generations of the family. Many stores with 100-year histories closed during the 1980s and 1990s as long term leases expired and rents increased.
