“Incidentally, these companies also have a target of opening franchises abroad, so they are interested in taking part in this expo to find potential buyers in Indonesia,” he continued.
According to him, South Korean food has its own uniqueness, so it is hoped that it can compete with products from other countries (such as China and Japan). Apart from that, some Indonesian food has similarities with Korean food, so it will be easier for Korean restaurants to expand into Indonesia.
He added, “It’s just that many Korean foods are fermented and made from vegetables, so they are healthier than other foods. We think that is the advantage of our food to compete in the Indonesian market.”
“Our main goal is to introduce this restaurant brand to the Indonesian people, so that it has potential buyers and expands in Indonesia,” said Lee.
