One of Asia’s largest piano factories is the Pearl River Piano Group, based in Guangzhou, China. Since 1956, this is where instruments have been produced, sold in Asia and exported to many other countries.
The beginnings of this extremely influential company today, as in most such stories, were inconspicuous. The Pearl River Piano Group was established as a result of a meeting of several owners of small shops selling reed organs. They were not piano makers, so it took some time before they gained the necessary knowledge, hired several dozen technicians and created their first piano. The business developed well, but problems a decade later came when Mao Zedong’s cultural revolution took place, which lasted for about 10 years. The company survived by selling small quantities of instruments. After this period, as a result of better economic conditions, the Pearl River regained its autonomy in foreign trade. The production and sales results began to grow very rapidly. The opportunities for investment in new technologies for more efficient production also increased. In Asian factories, a large part of the work is done by machines, resulting in an impressive number of pianos being made in a relatively short time. Of course, without the precise manual work of craftsmen in the subsequent stages of production it would not be possible to obtain durable, quality instruments. Pearl River records a production of nearly 150,000 upright and grand pianos per year! They are made in a giant factory in Guangzhou with an interesting, artistic design.
At the dawn of the 21st century, the director and long-time employee of Pearl River Zhicheng Tong decided to focus on developing and strengthening the brand and adapting the quality of pianos to American and European instruments. For this purpose, he hired many advisors from America and Europe (e.g. Lothar Thomma and Stephen Mohler) to educate his staff and change the construction of Pearl River upright and grand pianos. The last 20 years have brought enormous changes, thanks to which Pearl River is appreciated all over the world, and the instruments are suitable for the tastes of not only Chinese, but also European, British or American recipients.
Pearl River is the only company in China to produce pianos that has received ISO (International Standards Association) quality certificates for instruments and all their components, as well as high production, environmental and customer service standards.
