in the end [Centuries,in,the,Making]

　　For more than 300 years, herbal medicinal company, Tongrentang, has produced one of China’s pillar cultural products: traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Now, the centuries-old TCM maker is bursting with vitality, though challenges remain.
　　Tongrentang is a brand name synonymous with TCM. The prestigious family business was established in 1699 during the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). In 1723, it was appointed as the sole supplier of medicinal herbs to the imperial court.
　　Now the time-honored enterprise produces more than 1,000 TCM products and operates at least 1,000 stores across the country.
