CJ makes your life. More Healthier and More Enjoyable. Create a New Culture for Healthy, Happy, and Convenient Lifestyles. CJ CheilJedang is transitioning from being Korea’s leading food company to becoming a global lifestyle company. We manufacture and sell products not only in Korea but also in international markets. With a workforce of 37,000 employees spread across our global locations, including China, Vietnam, the U.S.A., Germany, Australia, and Brazil, we are committed to creating added value. Driven by global expansion across all businesses - Food, BIO, FNT, and Feed&Care - we achieved overseas sales of KRW 11 trillion(USD 9.2 billion), accounting for 62% of total sales in 2022. Going beyond our status as a prominent Korean food company, our Food Business is committed to providing consumers with healthier and more convenient products. This growth is driven by our premium brands, such as Hetbahn, Gourmet, and Beksul. Notably, our global flagship brand, bibigo, is at the forefront of promoting K-Foods and Korean culinary culture worldwide. In significant overseas markets, we've achieved remarkable success by harnessing the bibigo platform to expand the realm of K-Foods, with a particular focus on the seven Global Strategic Products (GSPs) such as dumplings, chicken, and processed rice. The BIO Business is a leader in animal nutrition and health based on world-class fermentation and refining technologies. Beginning with Agricultural Biotech, we have expanded our business into Industrial Biotech for petrochemical substitutes and Biopharma for microbiome and related product developments. Driven by ongoing R&D, cost competitiveness, and technology marketing, we achieved record-high profits and established an unmatched market position in 2022.
