This inbound mission will be an excellent opportunity for companies to network and establish contacts with key buyers from Korea. South Korea is the fifth largest export market for American agriculture. Changes in lifestyle and dietary culture, coupled with increased consumer income level, have stimulated a rapid growth of the food service and retail sectors in Korea. The monthly per capita spending on eating outside the home has more than doubled in the last ten years, and consumers are seeking more new and international tastes while becoming more concerned about the quality and safety of foods. The evolving food service sector in Korea is creating growing demand for imported products that offer new and healthy recipes, value price, stable supply capacity, and added-value for labor saving, all characteristics where U.S. products are competitive.Product Description
