Humble Beginnings to a World of Wellness
Wen Ken Group History
“Three Legs® Brand” was founded in 1937 by four Chinese families who came from China to Singapore during the difficult early days when living conditions and public healthcare were inadequate to keep health woes under control.
At that time, many early immigrants to the region were susceptible to common ailments such as heatiness, headaches, skin rashes, and coughs as they struggled to adapt to the searing tropical climate and long hours of labour under the sun. Since basic healthcare was not easily accessible to the general population before the 1940s, a trip to the medical clinic was hardly an option for these immigrants who survived on meagre salaries.
Recognising this, the families decided to market their own traditional medical remedies under one brand to cater to the basic healthcare needs of the masses at affordable prices.
Today, we are the biggest pharmaceutical company in Singapore serving all across South East Asia.
