Pulmuone Corporation reported a strong performance for its U.S. subsidiary throughout 2024, highlighted by a 21.1 percent year-over-year increase in accumulated sales for the third quarter. This growth builds on a consistent trend, as the company recorded an average annual sales increase of 14.4 percent between 2019 and 2023.
Why it matters
The company is focusing on improving profitability as part of a larger global business expansion. The U.S. market has become increasingly central to this strategy, currently accounting for two thirds of the total overseas business revenue for the company.
Sales growth was led by a 182.2 percent surge in the snacks category, alongside a 21.1 percent rise in Asian noodle sales and a 12.1 percent increase in tofu sales. This performance follows an average annual sales increase of 14.4 percent from 2019 to 2023.
