Company Description
Nien Made Enterprise (Stock Ticker: 8464, hereinafter referred to as NM or Nien Made) is a leading manufacturer principally engaged in the manufacture and distribution of various window coverings. The firm’s production bases are primarily located in China and Cambodia, and the headquarters is located in Taichung, Taiwan. NM was founded in 1974 and was the OEM manufacturer of window treatments in Lukang in Central Taiwan during our early years. During the Economic Takeoff of Taiwan in the 1990s, many young people became less willing to be engaged in traditional industries, and the lack of labor became the major bottleneck for the development of Nien Made. To break through the bottleneck, we set up factories in Guangdong in China in the mid-1990s. The capacity expansion in China fueled Nien Made’s growth for more than a decade.
