In 1994, the founders, Li Yuming and his wife Lou Liangmei opened a shop in China Tie Market in Shengzhou which is named as “The Ties Country of China”. Li was responsible for the design and purchase, and Lou was responsible for the sales. "The good faith management" was their rules. At that time there was an Egyptian who could neither speak Chinese nor had translator. He chose and bought a lot of ties, but the amount of each purchase from different stores was very small. What's more, because of his language barrier, many merchants disregarded him so the quality of the goods was in an uneven level. When Lou saw it, she helped him look for the merchants he ordered and helped him to check the packaging. Finally, no tie was left out. The next day, the Egyptian had someone written "good woman" in Chinese to show his gratitude to Lou. Later, the Egyptian's business grew bigger and bigger, and ten years later he became YILI's long-term customer of the big company. "YILI is my home" is a phrase he always says every time he comes to YILI.
In 1997, because of their innovative design and faithful management, the business was getting better and better. Increasingly, the couple had their own workshops and employees. But early productivity was far from enough to satisfy customers' orders, and the couple often had to work overnight with their employees to pack up but the next day they continued to operate the shop. Accumulation of capital and a steady flow of orders brought the couple's idea of setting up a tie factory.
In 2001, the Li and Lou bought a factory house and formally established Shengzhou YILI Necktie & Garment CO., LTD. “YILI” is the abbreviation of "billions of profits" in Chinese which is the simple desire of the couple. At the beginning there were only about 20 employees and 4 paper board looms in the company. The couple was even worried that there was too much room left in the building, but what they feared a few years later was that there was not enough room for them.
