SEOUL, October 22 (AJP) - South Korean food manufacturer Pulmuone is showcasing its flagship plant-based products at SIAL Paris 2024, one of the world's largest food exhibitions, this week.

The company said Tuesday it is presenting about 50 products, including tofu tenders and soymilk noodles, during the event underway at the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Center from Oct. 19-23.

Six Pulmuone products were included in a list of the most innovative items selected by food experts at the exhibition.

"By showcasing Pulmuone's plant-based innovations at SIAL Paris 2024, we aim to accelerate our entry into the European market, expand the global reach of sustainable K-food following our successes in the U.S., China and Japan, and achieve our goal of becoming the world's leading sustainable food company," said Oh Seung-hwan, director of Pulmuone's Global Business.
