European Pork in South Korea? Access Granted
The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) in South Korea maintains a list of authorized foreign establishments eligible to export pork products. And, without a doubt, European suppliers from France and Portugal are on it. That means Korean distributors can import from these trusted sources, with some of these premium products already hitting the shelves and ready for consumers.

Why Choose European Pork?
European pork works with Korean cuisine — not by changing it, but by upgrading what’s already great. Take pork belly: with its perfect balance of fat and meat, it delivers that crisp, aromatic grill for a great samgyeopsal without sacrificing the perfect tenderness. Or ribs — tender, marbled, and full of depth — perfect for galbi-gui, soaking up marinades and caramelizing like a dream over flame.
And it doesn’t stop at the butcher’s counter. Imagine pork pâtés layered into bold Korean-style sandwiches, or dry-cured sausages standing up to a hit of kimchi. It’s a fusion that feels stylish, fresh — and delicious.
