CJ CheilJedang's 'Gourmet Detroit Pizza' Sells 100,000 Units in Just 2 Weeks

CJ CheilJedang announced on the 2nd that its new frozen pizza products, 'Gourmet Detroit Pizza' 2 types, surpassed 100,000 units sold within two weeks.

Considering that the products were initially released exclusively on CJ CheilJedang's official mall CJ The Market and Emart, this is an exceptional sales trend. Riding on this success, CJ CheilJedang plans to expand sales to all major supermarkets nationwide starting in July.

Gourmet Detroit Pizza features a square-shaped dough characteristic of the Detroit style, with cheese-filled dough baked to a golden brown, allowing for a crispy texture all the way to the edges.

To enhance its distinctive taste, CJ CheilJedang cold-fermented the dough below 10 degrees Celsius to make it soft and chewy, and added a variety of special sauces to create a richer flavor. The 'Triple Meat Combo' offers three toppings?pepperoni, sausage, and ground meat?combined with tomato sauce and a smooth aioli sauce for a deep yet sweet taste. The 'Basil Pesto Cheese' features sweet cheese mousse on top of basil pesto, delivering a refreshing and smooth flavor as well as a unique appearance that adds to the eating pleasure. Additionally, the pizzas are sized perfectly for air fryers and can be ready in about 11 minutes, making it easy and convenient to enjoy authentic American Detroit pizza at home.

A CJ CheilJedang representative said, "Consumers are responding well because they can enjoy a high level of taste realized through differentiated technology and professional chef recipes in a convenient meal format," adding, "We will continue to introduce various menus that align with pizza trends and consumer expectations."
