Biography

Lim Wee Chai started Top Glove with his wife Tong Siew Bee in 1991 and took the company public in 2001.

Top Glove is one of the world's largest producers of rubber gloves. It has 51 factories with an annual capacity of 95 billion gloves.

Lim, whose parents are rubber plantation owners and traders, also holds a stake in property developer Tropicana.

In March 2022, Lim postponed plans for a Hong Kong listing amid a sharp drop in profits.
