History

Pulmuone Co., Ltd. (Template:Lang-ko) (KRX: 017810) is a South Korean company that produces perishable foods such as tofu and soybean sprouts. It was founded in 1981, is based in Seoul, South Korea and sells its products both within Korea as well as internationally. The company provided major funding for the establishment of the Kimchi Field Museum in Seoul in 1986.[1]

The company was founded by Won Kyung Sun as a small vegetable store. There is a subsidiary in the United States, called Pulmuone Wildwood, Inc., with offices in Fullerton, California, Watsonville, California, San Rafael, California, Grinnell, Iowa, and Tappan, New York.

In 2016, the company acquired Vitasoy USA,[2] which included Nasoya Foods, Inc. Nasoya was founded in Leominster, Massachusetts in 1977 and produces Nayonaise.[3]

In 2019, Pulmuone is also producing pet food for Amio Organic Senior, Organic Farmer's Dut, Skin & Beauty, Slim Up, Organic Farmer's Puff, Supermilk, Legacy Chicken, and Calcium Chicken Chest.[4]

In 2021, Pulmuone declared a "specialized vegetable food company".[5] It plans to minimize the use of meat for the global environment and provide food that uses only vegetable ingredients. [5] Pulmuone has been running the PPM division since 2020, a research division dedicated to plant proteins. Based on this, it will establish a three-stage mid- to long-term road map by 2023 to introduce  plant-oriented new products sequentially. [5]

In addition, Pulmuone's overseas subsidiaries have established roadmaps to release vegetable-oriented products. Pulmuone USA, a U.S. corporation, is the market leader with the largest market share in the U.S. tofu market (75%). [5]

Following Pulmuone LOHAS Market Olga Hall Food's Bangi branch, a total of four stores, including Olga Banpo Branch, Violga Ahyeon New Town Branch, Jeju English Village Branch and Jeju Island Branch, have been newly designated as "green specialty stores."[6] Green specialty stores are green stores designated by the Korean government's Ministry of Environment that minimize the use of plastic containers and plastic bags.[6]

In 2021, it won the 15th Korea Packaging Contest, an eco-friendly salad container.[7]
