Our history

A long journey to Sumber Baru.

Our family's business began with Kwee Bon Bie and his brothers seeking a better living. What started with selling tools grew into the soy sauces and chili sauces we make today.

1932

Leaving Yong Chun

Kwee Bon Bie, the fourth of five siblings, left Yong Chun, Fujian, China, with his brothers. Poverty at home led them to seek a better life. They sold pickaxes, shovels, and other building tools across Ambon and Makassar.

1935

Learning from his eldest brother

Bon Bie's eldest brother taught the family to make kecap asin, or salty soy sauce. Knowledge passed between the brothers became part of the early story of Tho Guan, which began on Jalan Ternate in Kelurahan Melayu Baru, Makassar. The family also made pickled cucumbers and sold tauco.

1960s

Sumber Baru and Cap Ikan Mas

The family business began using the name Sumber Baru. By this time, the family was also making sweet soy sauce under the Cap Ikan Mas brand. The old site on Jalan Ternate remained the business's home for decades.

1980s

Expanding the sauce range

The family began making chili sauce, expanding a business that was already making salty and sweet soy sauces.

1999

Preparing a new home

With warehouse operations in the city centre no longer possible, the family began building in Makassar's industrial area.

2000

Moving to today's location

The business moved from Jalan Ternate to Jalan KIMA Raya 2 No. 5. This is now the address of PT Sumber Baru Perkasa Wibawa.

Kwee Bon Bie had eight sons and two daughters. Several of his sons later established factories in cities across Sulawesi. Hengky, Bon Bie's sixth son, was born in 1955 and began working in the family business as a child. He now leads the company as CEO while the family business gradually transitions toward the third generation.
