About Newegg

Newegg Inc. is an online retailer of computer hardware and consumer electronics. It was founded by Fred Chang, an immigrant and now US citizen from Taiwan, in 2001. The company is headquartered in City of Industry, California. 

The company name was based on the egg, a symbol of birth and unlimited potential. The founders selected "Newegg" to signify new hope for e-commerce companies during a period when e-commerce businesses were struggling to survive. In 2004, they started Rosewill, a private-label manufacturer of computing and household products.

Developments over the years have led to them garnering many a positive Newegg review and the brand being named one of the Internet's Top 10 companies. In 2009, the company was listed as No. 234 on Forbes America's Largest Private Companies list. It launched the Newegg Marketplace in 2010, and Newegg sales exceeded US$2.5 billion in revenue that year. 

In 2016, Liaison Interactive, a Chinese tech company, acquired a majority stake in Newegg in an investment deal.
