"Maehongjeongseong Food, located in Gochang-gun, Jeollabuk-do, is a food company established with the goal of becoming a 'master in sweet potato processing.' It started with the belief of creating new added value through processing, going beyond simply selling raw products. Before starting the company, CEO Jeong Ho-cheol was in charge of sweet potato distribution at a large retail company and wholesale market. Seeing sweet potatoes discarded due to lack of marketability, he became convinced that new value could be given through processing and thus founded the company."
