[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] Nostalgic elementary school tteokbokki (hereinafter referred to as Gukddeok) announced on the 7th that it will expand and relocate its factory to Hanggok-ri, Goa-eup, Gumi-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, and hold a completion ceremony for the new factory on the 8th.


The newly completed factory was built on a site area of 3,924㎡, with a total floor area of 1,971㎡, and consists of three above-ground floors. In addition to expanding facilities, production equipment and production and logistics processes that were scattered by process were vertically integrated. With the completion of the new factory, the maximum production capacity was expanded to 14,000 units per day and 5 million units annually. Through this, it will be possible to respond more actively to customers' needs for HMR products due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic. It is also expected to gain momentum in targeting overseas markets.


Gukddeok stated, “We have high expectations that the foundation for providing various services, such as research and development of new products that match trends and strengthening the ‘Gukddeok’ product lineup that satisfies customers, has been secured through the completion of this new factory. We are operating the factory with special attention to food safety and have introduced a Smart Factory operation system to secure global competitiveness. We plan to complete the acquisition of higher-level international certifications such as FSSC22000 and ISO22000 within this year.”



They added, “In our relationship with partner companies, we formed a TFT centered on working-level staff rather than one-sided communication, and through active communication on the entire process from production to distribution, we will prepare flexible response measures to rapidly changing market conditions and strive to raise Gukddeok’s status in the HMR sector.”
