History

Founded back in 1963 initially Shulong was a livestock agribusiness company, Shulong focused on export to Japan. However, due to Taiwan becoming a World Trade Organization member around 1995 as well as foot-and-mouth outbreak during 1997, pork export business became increasingly hard.  After much thoughtful deliberation as well as careful market trend assessment, in 1997 Shulong decided to transform into an agricultural company focusing on cultivation of commercial Phalaenopsis orchids.  As a company that export 100% of its Phalaenopsis orchids, Shulong/Taiwan Orchid Nursery initially exported large white Phalenopsis orchids – a Japanese favorite, to Japan, and was able to meet the rigorous quality standards set forth by the Japanese customers. 

After 22 years of continuous improvement as well as technical and hardware refinement, Shulong’s greenhouse scale grew from 20,000 square meters to 78,000 square meters as of 2019.  In supplying vast, customized varieties of quality plants to our dear customers, we exported Taiwan Phalaenopsis orchids to over 41 nations worldwide.  As one of the top 3 orchid exporters here in Taiwan, Shulong /Taiwan Orchid Nursery has been a proud recipient of the prestigious ‘Million Orchid Nursery’ award year after year (award presented by Taiwan’s Council of Agriculture annually) since 2011.
