[Qingdao, September 28] Amid the warmth of early autumn and joyful laughter, all colleagues of Kenko (Qingdao) Co., Ltd. gathered to celebrate the significant milestone of the company's 19th anniversary.

As steaming hot pots were brought to the table, the vibrant red broth and rich mushroom soup simmered and intertwined, symbolizing the company’s dynamic growth and inclusive culture over the past 19 years. Seated around the table, everyone raised their glasses in celebration amid the fragrant steam. Conversations flowed freely, and with every shared laugh and bite, relationships grew closer. This was not just a meal but a heartfelt connection, as if the passion and dreams we strive for together were vividly reflected in the boiling pots.

This place truly feels like my second home."

Fresh Energy and Aspirations: A newer employee shared her fresh perspective: "As a newcomer, what strikes me most is the sense of being 'respected' and 'having direction.' The company’s mentorship program has helped me grow quickly, and events like today make me genuinely feel the warmth and inclusivity of this big family. I look forward to striving alongside the company toward the next glorious 19 years."

Management’s Gratitude and Vision: The company’s General Manager also attended the event and expressed sincere appreciation: "Every step of this 19-year journey has been made possible by the wisdom and hard work of each person here.

Conclusion

"...You will cross mountains and see the boundless sky,
As birds soar over the sea.
You will face the wind, brave and singing,
Taking in all the scenery.

As sunlight breaks through the clouds.
You will clench your fists, bare your feet, and sweat,
Climbing over every hardship..."
