About William Fung

William Fung and his older brother Victor own a significant stake in Li & Fung, which operates as a middleman between global manufacturers and retailers in the U.S. and Europe.

William stepped down as chairman of Li & Fung in 2020 when Victor's son, Spencer, took the helm.

In 2020 Li & Fung was privatized through a deal worth $930 million.

In 2022, Danish shipping giant A.P. Moller-Maersk acquired the brothers' logistics business, LF Logistics, for $3.4 billion.

Their grandfather, Fung Pak-liu, founded Li & Fung with partner Li To-ming in 1906, exporting porcelain and silk.
