Xu Laushan, a 60-year-old dessert shop, was ordered to wind up in May this year after his creditors applied for liquidation due to rent arrears.
In mid-November, it was reported that the last branch of the group in Yau Tong Base Camp will be closed at the end of the month, which immediately attracted many people to patronize, taking the opportunity to reminisce about the desserts and drinks full of mangoes; Xu Liushan has not responded positively to the news of the closure. .
Xu Liushan started his business by selling turtle jelly and herbal tea. In the 1980s, he switched to selling desserts and snacks twice. In the 1990s, he first created "Mango Sago Lao", and later "Mango Coconut Milk West" and "Mango Small Balls". It became synonymous with Xu Liushan, which allowed his business to expand to more than 260 stores worldwide.
However, as seen from the original business hours yesterday (28th), the base camp branch has opened its gates. The store staff confirmed that the store had closed two days earlier, which means that the most prosperous catering group finally walked into history silently.
