Nongshim, a leading Korean food company, announced that it has purchased 490 tons of Korean seaweed from Wando (a region in South Korea known for its seaweed production) to be used in its popular Neoguri ramen. This marks a 10% increase in purchase from last year, continuing the company's commitment to support local fishermen and enhance product quality. Wando seaweed has been a key ingredient in Neoguri ramen since its launch in 1982. The area supplies about 70% of the nation's seaweed, and its optimal farming conditions contribute to the high quality of the produce. Nongshim's efforts in supporting the local community include participating in festivals and running support programs for local fishermen. Such initiatives are seen as successful examples of corporate-community collaboration, benefiting both the company and the local economy.
