The Korea Fisheries and Coastal Resources Development Institute and the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries teamed with GS Retail to offer a special menu featuring domestic Uljin red snow crab at the GS Tower corporate cafeteria in Seoul. As part of the “Co:Ochon (Co:어촌) project” — a shared-value collaboration to link coastal village resources with corporate business for ESG and rural support — the promotion aimed to introduce high-quality Korean seafood to urban workers via large corporate supply chains. Kim Min-ji, the GS manager known for a previous “lobster school lunch” program, helped develop recipes; popular dishes included spicy red crab meat ramen and gimtae (edible seaweed) basil red crab pasta. The agencies plan to use feedback to explore regular cafeteria menu adoption and secure stable large-scale channels to boost fishers’ incomes and diversify seafood distribution.
