Focal Point, a premium handmade pie brand, announced on November 27 that it has opened a new offline store at Starfield Suwon.

This marks the brand’s first expansion into a large-scale shopping mall market, after building brand recognition through its Seoul Station flagship store, online sales, SSG.com, and pop-up stores.

Since its early days at the Seoul Station flagship location, Focal Point has been recognized as a leading handmade pie shop by being selected for the Blue Ribbon Survey. The brand is also known for its unique menu, which reinterprets Western-style pies to suit Korean tastes and sensibilities. Signature items include the ‘Chungju Apple Pie,’ which highlights the sweetness and tartness of apples from Chungju, and the ‘Seoul Bulgogi Pie,’ featuring traditional Korean bulgogi seasoning.

The Starfield Suwon store is located on the fourth floor near the Byeolmadang Library. Upon opening, the store will offer limited-edition pies, collaborative menu items, and interactive events. While maintaining its core identity centered on pies and tea for new customers and family visitors, Focal Point plans to introduce content tailored to the unique characteristics of a large shopping complex.

A Focal Point representative stated, “We are launching our first regional expansion store based on the proven quality and experience of our Seoul Station flagship. Leveraging the trust built through our Blue Ribbon certification and our diverse brand collaboration experience, we aim to establish a foothold for further expansion into major commercial districts in both the greater Seoul area and regional markets.” The representative added, “The Starfield Suwon store is not simply a new location, but a milestone that showcases our brand’s ‘culture and lifestyle-based F&B’ strategy to the public.”
