Marking its third anniversary this year, the Plant-Based World Expo is the only plant-based alternative food trade fair in North America designated by the Plant-Based Foods Association (PBFA). More than 200 companies, including Rutgers State University, Nestle USA, United Natural Food (UNFI), and Compass Group, participated in the event, and it is an international vegetarian fair that attracts as much as 4,000 spectators.

ARMORED FRESH, which will participate in the global fair for the fifth time this year after ‘CES 2022’ and the ‘2022 Fancy Food Show’, will once again participate to promote the excellence of its plant-based cheese to the world. In particular, a large number of related industry workers, including buyers, manufacturers, and suppliers, participated in the fair, attracting a lot of attention and expectations for each company to enter overseas markets.

ARMORED FRESH, which has continued to research and development their products to realize a higher taste and texture, also applied for patents on three vegan cheese manufacturing technologies in the first half of this year. Vegan cheese, created with this unique technology, caught the attention of visitors to the venue. The visitors continued throughout the event to taste the vegan cheese provided by sampling. In particular, due to the nature of the event, where most of the visitors are workers in the food industry, inquiries from global buyers who visited the site were also flooded.

"We have already participated in the global fair for the fifth time this year to promote the excellence of plant-based cheese made with our own technology," said the head of the international business team at ARMORED FRESH. "We will continue to participate in various international fairs to make sure that the high-quality vegan cheese developed with our technology is recognized worldwide."

Meanwhile, ARMORED FRESH's plant-based cheese, which was introduced at the fair, is attracting attention as it participates in a series of global fairs held in the United States, starting with CES earlier this year. ARMORED FRESH's plant-based cheese, which was also selected as a preliminary unicorn company by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups in recognition of its patented technology, will begin a full-scale production in the second half of this year and will be officially launched in New York in October.
