Lee Man-tat, the head of the oyster sauce company Lee Kum Kee, has died. He was reportedly 91 years old.
Lee was the third generation head of the condiment business, founded in Guangdong by his grandfather Lee Kum-sheung in 1888.
Born in Macau, Lee helped further develop the brand into a household name in the process, becoming one of Hong Kong's richest tycoons.
Lee also gave to charity through his foundation and was known for his promotion of Chinese culture and cuisine.
The Chief Executive Carrie Lam has sent her condolences to his family.
Lee was awarded the Silver Bauhinia Star three years ago.
