[Asia Economy Reporter Song Seung-yoon] Pulmuone announced on the 1st that it participated as a main sponsor along with the global company Unilever at the "Global Plant-Forward Culinary Summit" hosted by the CIA, one of the world's top three culinary schools, in Napa City, California.


The Global Plant-Forward Culinary Summit is a sustainable culinary research conference hosted by the CIA in the United States. This year, over 300 food industry experts, culinary researchers, and food company representatives from around the world attended to discuss the future of sustainable food and demonstrated various dishes using plant-forward foods. Pulmuone has been the only Korean food company to participate in the event for four consecutive years since its inaugural year in 2019. This year, it participated as a 'Grand Platinum' sponsor, the highest tier, together with Unilever, a global multinational consumer goods company that has recently been expanding its plant-based food business.


The event was held from the 26th to the 28th at the CIA Copia campus located in Napa City, California. During the event, Pulmuone showcased various innovative plant-forward foods to attendees from around the world. Baekyangsa Temple's Jeong Gwan, known as the "Philosopher Chef," demonstrated plant-forward dishes using Pulmuone tofu, receiving great acclaim from local participants. Korean-American second-generation culinary influencer Judy Joo also presented healthy recipes using Pulmuone's plant-based meat alternatives.



Cho Gil-soo, CEO of Pulmuone USA, said, "The Global Plant-Forward Culinary Summit is a meaningful gathering where food experts from around the world come together to envision the future of the plant-based food industry and share inspiration. Pulmuone plans to further spread plant-based foods as a leading Korean plant-forward food company and target the global plant-based food market."
