Since 1963, the Wah Fung Chinese Goods Centre, an eclectic emporium of Chinese-made goods, with a Fujian flair, has occupied the Ground, First and Second floors of the building - one of two Hong Kong branches and the city's largest department store when it opened.[1]
Kiu Kwan Mansion was refurbished in 1996 and 2007.
