KOREAN RICE FOOD

Company introduction

Since its founding in 1983, Samjin food has remained a specialized enterprise dedicated to the field of grain processing for over 40 years. Operating our own production facility in Seongju, Gyeongbuk, we manufacture a diverse range of products including starches, grain flours, and bean powders. In 2022, we initiated a new chapter of growth by transitioning to second-generation management through a family succession. We hold major domestic and international food safety certifications, such as HACCP, ISO 22000, and FSSC 22000. We have also strengthened our global export capabilities by completing overseas manufacturer registration with the General Administration of Customs of China (GACC) and facility registration with the U.S. FDA. Recognized for our technical expertise and growth potential, we were selected as a "Master Small Manufacturer" (Baeknyeon-sogongin) by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups in 2023, and as a "Strong Local Enterprise" in 2025. We are committed to developing high-quality products using locally sourced Korean ingredients. With HACCP certification for seven product categories, our extensive production capabilities span from starches and grain flours to bean powders, leached teas, and food additives.
