Prothai Co., Ltd., an importer and distributor of quality Korean food and products, partnered with Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corporation (aT) and Gourmet Market to organize K-Food Fest 2026, a major Korean food festival providing Thai consumers with an authentic Korean shopping experience.

Tasting activities allowed customers to sample popular Korean products before purchasing, generating substantial engagement.

A major highlight was a cooking show featuring Chef Jan Jomchaya Pongsatthevate preparing special Korean menus using Prothai products. Two featured dishes—Shin Ramyeon with rose sauce and Tteokbokki with kimchi cheese sauce—received strong positive feedback from attendees who praised the intense flavors and creative use of Prothai ingredients in innovative dishes.

K-Food Fest 2026 ran simultaneously across seven Gourmet Market locations—Thaphra, Ngamwongwan, Bangkapi, Bangkhae, Paragon, Emporium, and MRT Lad Phrao—from July 9-22, 2026.
