For products exported to the United States, the logo retains the original brand name 'Borumdal,' accompanied by the English description 'Strawberry Fullmoon Chiffon Cake' to help local consumers understand the product. This item will be available at approximately 400 Costco locations across all 50 states from mid-May. The export volume amounts to about 11.75 million packs, which is 21 times larger than the initial export volume of 'Samlip Cheesecake' when it launched at Costco last year.


Samlip explained that this export achievement was made possible by the success of 'Samlip Cheesecake,' which was introduced to Costco in the United States in September last year. The product went viral on social network services (SNS), selling out approximately 560,000 packs within three weeks of its launch. Since then, an additional 10 million packs have been supplied by the end of last month, with sales increasing more than eighteenfold compared to the beginning.



A Samlip representative stated, "We are delighted to achieve such meaningful export results in the year of Borumdal's 50th anniversary," and added, "We will continue to actively expand exports through a proactive entry into the global market and further elevate the status of K-bakery in the worldwide market."
