Global Growth,
Local Expertise

Founded in 1806 in the Hanseatic city of Bremen, Melchers began as a trading house and shipping company. By 1866, it had become one of the first German enterprises to establish a branch in Hong Kong, marking the start of its enduring presence in Asia. Today, Melchers operates as a decentralised investment and service group with a robust network of subsidiaries and representative offices across Europe, Southeast Asia, China, Korea, Sri Lanka, South Africa, and the United Arab Emirates.

Melchers’ business model is built on regional expertise, local presence, and global connectivity. Each subsidiary operates independently, guided by local experts who tailor strategies to market-specific demands. This decentralised approach enables Melchers to integrate a wide range of products and services across diverse industries.

Melchers distinguishes itself through its deep cultural and economic understanding of Asia, making it a trusted partner for companies seeking sustainable growth in the region. The group’s long-standing presence and adaptability have positioned it as a key enabler of internationalisation for European and global businesses.
