"Let's Help Rice Farmers" Nonghyup Distribution Hanaro Mart Sells Our Rice Cakes

[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] As interest in health and the concept of "Shin-to-bul-i" (the idea that one should live in harmony with the land where they were born) grows, the consumption of foods made from Korean agricultural products such as rice cakes, coffee, tea, and bread is also increasing.

Nonghyup Distribution, which operates the Nonghyup Hanaro Mart, a specialty agricultural and food store, announced on the 21st that it will sell "rice cakes" made from Korean rice, suitable for small gatherings such as family events, at its Yangjae branch ahead of Christmas and the year-end season.

At Hanaro Mart Yangjae branch, to support farmers who are struggling due to the sharp decline in per capita rice consumption, rice cakes will be sold during the year-end and Christmas season. The plan is to promote rice consumption and widely introduce healthy rice cakes to customers.

The rice cakes and breads sold in this rice bakery contain 87% rice and come in over 100 varieties.

A Nonghyup Distribution official stated, “When consumers eat rice cakes, they can take care of their health, and the increased sales of rice cakes will help promote agricultural product consumption, which in turn supports farmers.” They added, “We hope that during Christmas and the year-end and New Year holidays, people will express their feelings to their precious family and loved ones with healthy rice cakes.”
