Hoiki Liu

Founder, Anthora collection

Hoiki Liu is a Hong Kong-born entrepreneur with a passion for sustainable fashion and ethical business practices. Her journey in the business world began after receiving her education from both local and international schools in Hong Kong and pursuing further studies in Canada during her high school and university years.

After her early career led her into the family garment manufacturing business, Nice Tones Ltd., founded by her father, Davy Liu, in 1992, she expanded the family’s ventures by establishing Skyrex International Ltd. in 2009. This new venture focused on partnering with factories in various garment categories, showcasing her entrepreneurial acumen and commitment to business growth.

Hoiki’s personal life took a significant turn as she got married and became a mother to two boys. This transformative experience fueled her dedication to living consciously and sustainably. She adopted eco-friendly practices in both her personal life and business endeavors, promoting a lifestyle focused on reducing single-use plastics and embracing sustainability in all aspects.

Driven by her passion for sustainability, Hoiki launched Anthora Collection in 2024, a women’s wear capsule line that embodies timeless fashion and eco-conscious principles. Anthora Collection sources deadstock materials, prioritizes plastic-free packaging, and incorporates natural or recycled accessories, setting a new standard for sustainable fashion in the industry.

Beyond her business endeavors, Hoiki values work-life balance and community engagement. She shares her expertise in sustainability and entrepreneurship through her sustainable journal, open table discussions, and educational presentations. She also engages in charitable initiatives with her family, including beach clean-ups and food distribution efforts, instilling values of environmental and social responsibility in her children and the community.
