Many people know that Lavender Cottage was the dream of its two founders—Huijun and Tingfei. Since its establishment in 2001, it will soon celebrate its 10th anniversary. Starting with just three employees, it now welcomes over a million visitors annually. Its reach has expanded to cafes, homestays, and even the wedding industry. This success comes from transforming the leisure industry into a “happiness industry,” touching the hearts of more consumers.

Wang Cunhuang, CEO of Lavender Cottage, said that 7–8 years is the make-or-break threshold for Taiwan’s leisure industry. But Lavender Cottage has never wavered from its core values. Profit is not the ultimate goal; instead, it aims to connect with the emotional side of life, pursuing simple, genuine happiness and joy. It also positions itself as a “happiness enterprise centered on design and driven by altruism,” hoping that the world will be a little different because of Lavender Cottage, continuing the entrepreneurial spirit of the two women.
During the past decade, it has successively established three Lavender Cottage locations, the Herborist Shop for self-owned merchandise, the Tonghua Village Hakka Restaurant, two Slow Life homestays (both domestic and international), and the Heart’s Garden wedding business. In the next ten years, it hopes to preserve the original entrepreneurial spirit of the two women while enhancing employees’ innovation capabilities.

Birthday guests can enjoy a free meal, and those with birthdays in the same month can receive a complimentary drink. The public is also invited to release happiness balloons and join the birthday celebration to welcome the next happy decade.
