Ming Hsin Food - Annan Branch Introduction
"Ming Hsin Foods was founded in 1962, establishing a grocery store named Ming Hsin in the vicinity of National Cheng Kung University and Tainan First Senior High School (currently at the intersection of Changrong Road and Dongning Road). The responsible person, Mr. Hsu Chun-Hsiung (the current chairman), recognized that Western pastries and bread would change the eating habits of the people, and with a forward-looking vision, he went to the Taipei Nangang Baking School (now the Chinese Grain Products Research Institute) to learn relevant knowledge and techniques in baking. Gradually, the grocery store was transformed into a specialty store for Western pastries and bread. Along with the development of Tainan City's Eastern District, it was officially restructured into "Ming Hsin Foods Co., Ltd." in 1989. Since 1990, when the second and third branches were established at the end of Dongning Road and Xiaodong Road, there are now a total of ten stores, making it a well-known bakery company in southern Taiwan over the past forty years. The main products include bread, cakes, both Eastern and Western wedding pastries, and specialty gift boxes from Tainan."
