Celebrating its 67th anniversary this year, Daesang is a leading comprehensive food company established with purely domestic capital and technology, possessing world-class fermentation technology. Centered around the 'Chungjungone' and 'Jongga' brands, it is steadily growing by leading food culture both domestically and internationally through its comprehensive food business, bio business, and starch and sugar business.
Its global operations are also active. Since Daesang made its first overseas plant export in 1973 and entered Indonesia, it has steadily expanded its overseas bases, operating 21 overseas subsidiaries in the United States, China, Japan, Europe, Oceania, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Hong Kong, developing its global business. Last year, it completed a large-scale kimchi factory in Los Angeles, USA, and began full-scale production.
Daesang's material business, represented by bio and starch and sugar sectors, has maintained an average annual growth rate of over 10% for the past three years through establishing efficient domestic and international business structures, phased overseas investments, and discovering new businesses. The bio sector has strengthened its business portfolio by completing factories for high value-added amino acids such as 'L-Histidine' and 'Astaxanthin' and reacquiring the lysine business. In the starch and sugar sector, it is also creating stable management performance by actively responding to changes in consumer trends.
