Guangyuyuan was founded in the 20th year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty (A.D. 154 1) and has a history of nearly 500 years. During this period, it experienced the changes of more than a dozen pharmaceutical companies, including Guangshenghao Pharmacy, Guangshengju, Guangshengwei, Guangshengyuan, Guangshengyuan, Shanxi Chinese Medicine Factory and Shanxi Guangyuyuan.

In the Qing Dynasty, it was once known as the "four major drug stores" together with Guangzhou Chen Liji (founded in 1600), Beijing Tongrentang (founded in 1669) and Hangzhou Huqingyutang (founded in 1874). Now it is a model of traditional Chinese medicine enterprises in Shanxi Province, and in 2006, it was recognized by the people of China and the Ministry of Commerce for the first time.

On September 28th, 2023, the Notice of the Ministry of Commerce and other five departments on the Announcement of the Review Results of Chinese Time-honored Brands announced that the Guangyuyuan brand of Shanxi Guangyuyuan Chinese Medicine Co., Ltd. passed the review of Chinese Time-honored Brands.

The corporate philosophy of Guangyuyuan Company

Guangyuyuan takes "respecting morality and attaching importance to life, inheriting and innovating" as its corporate philosophy. Respecting morality and attaching importance to life embodies the ideology and culture of Chinese excellent traditional culture, which is based on morality and pays attention to life, and also carries the mind and ambition of Chinese medicine culture. Inherit from yourself, reverse this and create a new one.

In the past 500 years, Guangyuyuan has been practicing the prescriptions of Chinese medicine culture, repeatedly tempering the tightly preserved furnace and cauldron refining techniques, improving the traditional processing methods, and obtaining two national intangible cultural heritages with the production techniques of Guilingji and Dingkundan. This is the success of the enterprise's cultural concept of "respecting morality and valuing life", and it is also a good embodiment of Guangyuyuan as a living fossil of Chinese medicine industry.

As a traditional Chinese medicine enterprise with the longest existing history, Guangyuyuan, as a high-tech modern large-scale enterprise integrating R&D, production and sales of proprietary Chinese medicines, will strive to build an internationally influential enterprise with culture as the guide, science as the development, innovation as the driving force and Guangyuyuan National Medicine Hall as the consolidation company, integrating high culture, high technology and high market share.
