Bafang Dumpling’s story starts with our founder, Mr. Lin, and his wife, Mrs. Lin. A math teacher at the time, Mr. Lin’s home was always bustling with students and though they didn’t have a lot at the time, they always found a way to feed and nourish their students. And potstickers were a favorite- a crunchy bottomed dumpling with flavorful meat and veggies- who could resist?  

In 1998, while Mr. Lin was struggling financially as a mechanic, he thought back to his students and remembered how potstickers not only provided nourishment but brought his students joy eating together. With the mindset to create a better life for his family and community, he opened his first Bafang Dumpling store in Taiwan, specializing in potstickers and dumplings.

In September 2021, Bafang Yunji Foods became a publicly traded company in Taiwan. As the leading company of fast foods in Taiwan, the vision of our company’s culture and the stores remains– to nourish, grow, and build together as a community.
