Japanese trading house Mitsui & Co and Rohto Pharmaceutical are set to acquire 86% of Eu Yan Sang, a local traditional Chinese medicine maker, for US$594 million.

Eu Yan Sang , founded in 1879, now operates over 170 retail outlets in China, Hong Kong, Macau, Malaysia and Singapore.

Japanese trading house Mitsui & Co announced on April 4 that a special purpose entity it has set up with Rohto Pharmaceutical will buy around 86 per cent of Eu Yan Sang from Righteous Crane Holding. Once the deal is completed, a bid will be made to acquire the remaining 14 per cent of Eu Yan Sang, said Mitsui, which added that the Eu family will reinvest partially in the Mitsui-Rohto special purpose company.
