Lai Chi Kok literally means "lychee corner", referring to a river named after a type of fruit tree native to China. The river once separated Cheung Sha Wan from Lai Chi Kok Bay, and a river from Butterfly Valley separated Cheung Sha Wan from Lai Chi Kok. At the innermost area of Lai Chi Kok Bay, namely present-day Lai King Hill Road, is a settlement called Kau Wa Keng.

The Qing government had set up a customs station in Lai Chi Kok, to collect customs duties after ceding Hong Kong Island and Kowloon Peninsula to the British.[3] After the lease of the New Territories, the British reclaimed Lai Chi Kok for military use. A torpedo storage facility was also erected on the west point of Lai Chi Kok Bay, an area near Kwai Chung.

Lai Chi Kok highlights

Hong Kong wholesale mall: Some compares this mall to Platinum Fashion Mall in Bangkok. What these two wholesale malls share in common is the maze of small shops brimming with fashion clothes and accessories. Hong Kong Industrial Centre is an ideal place for fashionistas to look for high quality clothing.
Saturday is time for retail bargains: If you plan your trip to this fashion building, make sure that you reserve a Saturday for it. It is when many wholesale stores open their doors widely to retail customers. Your mission is to hunt for price-reduced items. It is the only way to get good quality stuff at lower cost at the centre.

Cheung Sha Wan was a manufacturing centre after the war, with a number of light industries, especially textile and clothing. After the PRC implemented its open door policy in the 1980s, many factories relocated to the mainland, vacating the area's industrial buildings (some of which have since been converted into offices and warehouses). There are several wholesale markets in Cheung Sha Wan. They include Cheung San Wan Temporary Wholesale Poultry Market, Cheung Sha Wan Vegetable Wholesale Market and many wholesale clothes markets. The Vegetable Marketing Organisation's Premium Vegetable Packaging Centre also locates in central Cheung Sha Wan.

The head office of Giordano is in the Tin On Industrial Building, Cheung Sha Wan.
