Hangwa (a traditional Korean confectionary)

[Hangwa]
Situated in Damnyang of South Jeolla Province in Korea, Ahnbokja Hangwa Co. is a leading provider of Hangwa using high-quality home-grown ingredients under rigorous product- quality control.

Hangwa refers to the traditional Korean confectionery and it is one of the most favorite gifts on the nation¡¯s traditional holidays such as Seolal (Lunar new years day), Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving Day). Hangwa can be found on ritual tables, as part of a spread of fruits and snacks to pay respect to ancestors.

It is also served along with tea to visitors. Reflecting its popularity, Ahnbokja Hangwa Co. is extremely busy when these major holidays come around and as consumers are getting to know about the company¡¯s Hangwa. Founded in 2001, the company has been frequently introduced on various programs of Korea's major TV channels such as KBS and MBC.

The main products of Ahnbokja Hangwa are Gangjung (oil-fried cookie made of glutinous rice powder and coated with popped rice), Yougwa (oil and honey pastry), Yakgwa (deep-fried honey cookies), Bugak (fried kelp), and so on.

Ms. Ahn Bok-ja, president of the company, was selected as a Modern Intellectual of the agricultural industry by the Korean government and her Hangwa was chosen as the best product by South Jeolla Province in September 2004.

To provide top-quality products, the company not only acquired the ISO-9001:2008 & KS Q ISO 9001:2009, but also obtained a quality certificate for making Korean traditional food from both the Ministry for Food, Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries (MIFAFF) and the South Jeolla provincial governor. Furthermore, this company was chosen as one of the promising SMEs of South Jeolla Province in 2007 and received the Prime Minister¡¯s Award in 2010.

Under Ms. Ahn¡¯s leadership, Ahnbokja Hangwa strives to adhere to hand-made production and the traditional methods to provide the taste of mom's home-made cookies. Currently, Ahnbokja Hangwa¡¯s products are distributed to customers nationwide via diverse outlets, including school meals, the post office shopping, direct sales in discount chains and Internet shopping. In addition, AhnbokjaHangwa has, since 2005, been focusing on export.
