Business
Lotte Wellfood Co.,Ltd (280360.KS) manufactures and markets a diverse portfolio of confectionery, ice cream, and bakery products. The company offers chocolate and sugar confectionery items, including brands such as Pepero, Koala's March, and Choco Pie; ice cream products under the Ice Pop, Melona, and Lotte Well brands; and bakery goods like breads, cakes, and pastries. It also provides health-oriented offerings, including low-sugar and functional snacks targeted at health-conscious consumers in the food and beverage industry. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Seoul, South Korea, Lotte Wellfood operates primarily in the Asia-Pacific region, with production facilities and distribution networks in South Korea, Vietnam, China, and other select markets. The company serves retail channels, including convenience stores, supermarkets, and e-commerce platforms, as a subsidiary of Lotte Confectionery prior to its demerger. Its business segments encompass confectionery (over 50% of revenue), ice cream, and bakery, with emphasis on innovation in premium and health-focused products. In recent developments, Lotte Wellfood launched new product lines such as upgraded Pepero variants with plant-based and zero-sugar options in 2024, expanding its health and wellness portfolio. The company formed a strategic partnership with a leading Vietnamese dairy firm in early 2025 to enhance ice cream production capacity in Southeast Asia. Additionally, it completed a major facility expansion in South Korea for bakery automation and announced a KRW 200 billion investment in sustainable packaging initiatives during 2025.
