[Asia Economy Reporter Seungjin Lee] SPC Samlip announced on the 24th that it has signed a 'Domestic Wheat Consumption Activation Agreement' with the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs as part of its ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management.

Through this agreement, SPC Samlip plans to help expand the consumption of domestic wheat and provide consumers with high-quality products made from domestic ingredients. Starting early next year, they will launch wheat products and campaigns beginning with 1,000 tons of raw wheat.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs is undertaking various activities to enhance the competitiveness of the domestic wheat industry, such as securing excellent domestic wheat varieties, establishing production complexes, and expanding storage facilities.

An SPC Samlip official stated, "Through this agreement, we will expand the market for domestic wheat and increase customer demand, contributing to the popularization of domestic agricultural products," adding, "We plan to continuously launch various new products using domestic agricultural products."

Meanwhile, as part of its ESG management, SPC Samlip has been leading efforts to revitalize domestic agricultural product consumption by launching products using eco-friendly agricultural products (eco-friendly onions) and regional specialties (Pyeongchang potatoes, Haenam sweet potatoes) last month.
