(Seoul=NSP News Agency) soon ki Lee Journalist = Nongshim announced a new leap into the global market, establishing a second plant in the United States.

On Sep 3, Nongshim decided to set up a new US plant in Corona, near Los Angeles, California.

Nongshim’s second plant in the US will begin construction early next year, and will be built on a site of about 154,000 square meters (4,500 pyeong), three times the size of the existing plant.

The total amount invested in the construction of the factory is $ 200 million, the largest size since the foundation of Nongshim.

In particular, Nongshim will show a product with health and premium value in the second plant which will have a production capacity for no-fried and dried noodles, unlike the existing plant that has only oil-fried noodle production facilities.

A Nongshim official said, “We currently have logistics centers in Chicago and New Jersey in the east, and we will operate a new logistics center in Dallas from October, which is a strategy to increase the efficiency of distribution and distribution by making the west a production base and establishing a logistics base in the main area in the east.”

Nongshim’s second plant is scheduled to begin operation by the end of 2021.

Nongshim aims to achieve more than $ 600 million in sales, which is more than twice as much as it is now, in the Americas by 2025 when the plant goes live.
