Sempio was established in 1946, with its name standing as the oldest registered brand in Korea. Since the beginning, the company has been dedicating itself to manufacturing fermented food products, mainly soy based sauces – which are essential in the field of Korean cuisine. The quality and taste of the products are what gained its reputation as Korea’s number one household brand.

Remaining faithful to the philosophy of its founder to never produce or sell products that his family would not eat, Sempio puts special emphasis on food safety and health. This led Sempio to a number of quality and safety certifications, most of them qualified for the first time in this field.

Sempio seeks to contribute better values to a tastier and healthier lifestyle. For this the company established Korea’s first research and development center that specializes in fermentation and actively collaborates with influential professionals in this area.
