The original "Wing On Building", located at 37 Ultimo Road in Haymarket, New South Wales, in Sydney's Chinatown, is now a hotel.

[citation needed] It has four outlets in Hong Kong, after the closure of Taikoo Shing Store in 2015, with 310,000 square meters (3,300,000 sq ft) of shopping space:[4] The branch at the Wing On Centre was prominently featured in the climactic sequence to the 1985 Jackie Chan film Police Story.

Wing On was the second of the "Four Great Companies", which were large department stores modelled on Australian precedent established by Cantonese migrants returning from Australia.

The 1930s extension building housed a separate "Overseas Chinese Store", which, for many years, was one of the few places in Shanghai where people with overseas connections could spend their foreign exchange certificates to buy goods not available to ordinary Chinese consumers.

The store has also changed its market orientation, focusing almost exclusively on domestic Chinese branded clothing targeted at visitors from other parts of China, with a small department in watches and other accessories.

In 2014-03-14, Wing On Company International Limited announced relocating Hong Kong Branch Share Registrar and Transfer Office to Level 22 of Hopewell Centre.
