The Swire exhibition ‘Believe in Hong Kong’ based on Winkle-picker’s Interpretive Plan was launched today and featured in the Hong Kong newspaper The Standard.
The exhibition tells the story of how Swire has grown and evolved with Hong Kong in the past 150 years and features a wide range of historical artifacts and products, including sugar cubes from the 1980s, Coca-Cola bottles from various eras, Cathay Pacific airline seats and plastic bags given to passengers back in the day.
Six themed zones – Early Entrepreneurship, Refining Industry, Maritime Evolution, Transforming Communities, Building an Aviation Hub and Realising Potential show how Swire’s pioneering businesses have helped put Hong Kong on the map as a global commercial and aviation hub.
