Tee Yih Jia Food Manufacturing Pte Ltd (simplified Chinese: 第一家), is a food manufacturing company headquartered in Singapore. Tee Yih Jia is the world leading manufacturer of spring roll pastry (also known as "popiah" in local context) that also manufactures a wide range of ready-to-eat Asian convenience foods such as roti paratha, crepes, cocktail prawn rolls, glutinous rice balls, spring rolls and samosas. Apart from pastry-based food, Tee Yih Jia manufactures other frozen convenience food products such as Dim Sum, Ramen, Oriental Buns (or mantou), and Asian Pizzas with flavours like Peking duck and satay chicken. Tee Yih Jia's "Spring Home" brand products are manufactured in Singapore as well as in several regional facilities. Tee Yih Jia has a 400,000 square feet (37,000 m2) factory in Senoko (Singapore) and a Johor (Malaysia) factory of 200,000 square feet (19,000 m2), as well as manufacturing plants in the USA and China.
Tee Yih Jia started off as Tee Yih Jia Po Piah Dried Pastry Factory (Pte) Ltd in 1969. It was a small, labour-intensive spring roll pastry producer, using semi-mechanized machinery in its production and serving the local Singapore market. Its current Executive chairman, Sam Goi Seng Hui, acquired the company from its founders for $450,000 in 1977 as part of his business diversification plan. Recognizing the increasing potential of the growing ready-to-eat food industry, Sam took over active management in 1980 to explore and initiate greater growth opportunities for the company.
Investing heavily in technology in 1984, Tee Yih Jia commenced on the automation of its manufacturing and quality control processes to reinvent itself into a company that is equipped and capable of serving beyond the local markets. As a result, Tee Yih Jia became the first in the industry to introduce full automation into the production of spring roll pastry in the 1980s.
