KOREAN RICE FOOD

Company introduction

Since entering the underdeveloped bean paste industry 40 years ago, Daedoo Foods has grown into a well-established company that manufactures over 200 types of bean paste in cutting-edge facilities.

In addition to bean pastes, we offer a wide range of food ingredients such as rice flour and steamed grain, and finished products like bread, rice cakes, red bean paste jelly, and wagashi.

We export worldwide, promoting the flavors of Korea. In 2024, we received the $7 Million Export Award. As a company proud to be part of Korea s bean paste heritage, we aim to grow into a global brand promoting Korean taste and craftsmanship.

Our guiding principle is “mimisinseon (美味新鮮),” meaning we go beyond just making food that looks and tastes good—we commit to safe ingredients and trustworthy processes. The belief of mimisinseon is the driving force of the company s stable growth.
