HKR International Limited (Chinese: 香港興業國際集團有限公司, abbreviated as HKRI) is a conglomerate headquartered in Hong Kong. The establishment of HKRI could be traced back to Hong Kong Resort Company Limited (“Hong Kong Resort”) founded in 1973.[1] In 1977, the Cha Family acquired Hong Kong Resort, owner of the Discovery Bay development on Lantau Island, Hong Kong.[2] Following a series of reorganization and scheme of arrangement, HKRI was formed as a new holding company and was listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong in May 1989.[3] HKRI is now also a constituent of the Hang Seng Global Composite Index,[4] Hang Seng Composite Index[5] and Hang Seng Corporate Sustainability Benchmark Index.[5] The company has interests in real estate development and investment, property management, hotels and serviced apartments, healthcare services and other investments in Hong Kong, Mainland China and other parts of Asia.[6]
