Founding
TamJai Yunnan Mixian (TamJai) and TamJai SamGor Mixian (SamGor) brands were founded by the TamJai Founding Shareholders and the SamGor Founding Shareholders back in 1996 and 2008, respectively. Since the opening of the first restaurant under TamJai brand in 1996, TamJai brand had quickly gained popularity among the public in Hong Kong. Its menu offerings of mixian in various spicy soup bases inspired by Southwestern Chinese cuisine as well as non-spicy soup bases with a wide variety of popular Hong Kong-style toppings at affordable prices fueled the expansion of the restaurants under TamJai brand. The first restaurant under SamGor brand was opened in Hong Kong in 2008 with similar menu offerings but different tastes of soup bases.

Acquisition by Toridoll Japan
Seeing the great potential for growth of TamJai and SamGor brands along with the food and beverage industry in Hong Kong, and the immense potential of TamJai and SamGor brands in the international F&B scene, in January 2018, Toridoll HK, a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Toridoll Japan, a company listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (stock code: 3397) and being a renowned multi-brand restaurants group which also operates the largest global udon chain ‘‘Marugame Seimen’’, acquired the two groups of companies engaging in the operation of the restaurant chain under the TamJai brand and the SamGor brand. Upon completion of the acquisitions of such two groups of companies, Tam Jai International became wholly-owned by Toridoll HK.

Overseas Expansion
Subsequent to the acquisition by Toridoll Japan, Tam Jai International had rapidly expanded its number of restaurants under TamJai and SamGor brands from 109 restaurants immediately after completion of such acquisition to 148 restaurants in Hong Kong, Mainland China and Singapore as at early 2021. In addition to expanding Hong Kong restaurant operations, the Group have also expanded its restaurant chains by opening its first restaurants under SamGor brand in Singapore in 2020 and TamJai brand in Mainland China in 2021, respectively.
