South Korea: Exporter Guide

The United States exported $8.9 billion in agricultural and related products to South Korea in 2019, making it our fifth largest agricultural export market. The United States is the leading exporter of agricultural products to Korea with a 25 percent market share. While overall U.S. agricultural exports to Korea will likely decline slightly in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, exports of consumer-oriented products should continue to grow. Ongoing socio-economic shifts coupled with elevated consumer attention to quality of diet in Korea will generate new opportunities for U.S. food and agricultural products for years to come.
