Maniker F&G Exports Frozen Processed Foods to UK for the First Time... Expands K-Food Lineup

Maniker F&G, a leading meat processing company, is accelerating the expansion of its overseas business by introducing frozen processed foods made with domestically sourced chicken to the UK market for the first time.

Maniker F&G announced that on June 23, it held a ceremony at its headquarters in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, to mark the first shipment of frozen chicken processed foods for export to the United Kingdom. The export products include a total of five items: three types of Sweet & Spicy Chicken (with sweet sauce, spicy sauce, and soy sauce), and two types of Chicken Breast Steak (original and BBQ).

This export is the first case of expanding the product line to frozen processed foods in the UK market since the initial export of Samgyetang in 2024. Maniker F&G plans to strengthen its global market strategy by broadening its export portfolio from primarily shelf-stable products to now include frozen products.

Since 2014, when it became the first Korean company to export Samgyetang to the United States, Maniker F&G has steadily expanded its overseas sales channels to Canada, the European Union (EU), and the United Kingdom. In particular, leveraging the overseas distribution network established through Samgyetang, the company has recently introduced various chicken processed foods, further enhancing the competitiveness of K-Food.

The initial shipment to the UK will be available for sale at local H Mart and OSEYO stores starting at the end of August. The company plans to continue expanding its retail presence and distribution channels to strengthen its sales base in the UK.

Choi Jangho, CEO of Maniker F&G, stated, "By expanding our export product lineup from mainly Samgyetang to include frozen processed foods, we have laid a new foundation for targeting overseas markets. We will continue to strengthen our competitiveness in the global market by developing a variety of new products, exploring new markets, and expanding distribution channels."

Maniker F&G plans to use this UK frozen processed food export as an opportunity to expand its K-Food product lineup and broaden its business scope in the global meat processing market.
