A Brief Survey of the Historical Development of Cantonese Merchants

Cantonese Merchants refer to the gangs of merchants who have emerged and developed in the area south of Nanling Mountain from ancient times, and later spread to other parts of China and other countries of the world. It was the historical and cultural development of South Nanling area that has gestated Cantonese Merchants, the opening up policy of modern China that has given impetus to the rising of Cantonese Merchants, and the vigorous development of national industry and commerce in the early 1900s have offered better opportunities for Cantonese Merchants to prosper. Over the years, Cantonese Merchants have formed their own distinctive historical and cultural characteristics in the course of their growth, development, expansion and transition.
