Quality S.Korea seaweed turns into international market through Alibaba.com

I am Kim Jong-bae, the CEO of Songhwa Food in Korea. We have been producing seaweed under the brand Gold Medal Laver for more than 20 years. Our Gold Medal Laver products represent the best of Korea's superior tastes and aromas and provide excellent-quality seaweed.

I used to meet buyers offline, such as through fairs, but following COVID-19, I decided to become a Global Gold Supplier on Alibaba.com and launched my online B2B business at the beginning of last year. I think it is a good opportunity to inform buyers of our products all over the world without being limited by regional constraints.

“Alibaba.com is just like an online 365-day fair, and we can freely promote our products and gain exposure to global buyers.I have a big expectation for using Alibaba.com in the future.”

We have also received inquiries from buyers from countries we wouldn’t expect, which has helped us explore new markets. After using Alibaba.com for 16 months, we received a total of 221 inquires and met 13 new buyers per month on average, conducting quotations and consultations for export.
