The building was later named after this shop. HKBU was in 2009 awarded the opportunity to revitalise the Grade I historic Lui Seng Chun building by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government. The revitalisation work was completed in April 2012, and since then Lui Seng Chun has been offering a full range of CM specialty services / treatments to the public. Lui Seng Chun
