New Malden, United Kingdom Korea Foods Company Full time

**Company**

Korea Foods Company is the leader in the supply of Korean food in the UK. A family-run business, established in 1999, Korea Foods Company has around 300 employees working within its Head Office, Logistics Centres, and Retail Stores.

We import from key brands in Korea, and distribute to the Asian community, focusing on East Asian consumers. We have also seen substantial growth within the supermarket multiples, securing significant listings with Tesco, Morrisons, Asda, and Costco.

We also operate our own retail store network, currently with 12 stores within the estate, with more opening in 2023, operating some of our own production within stores.

The company is an incredibly dynamic place to work, with ambiguity and transparency that is often associated with family-run businesses. It is, also, whilst not for the faint-hearted, a rewarding workplace where personal achievements are recognised due to the relatively flat management structure.

The company is now seeking to export UK and European food and beverage products to other foreign markets, specifically South Korea. As such we are setting up an export department to manage the supply chain between the UK and Korea.

**Key Responsibilities**:

- Maintain, handle and replenish stock throughout the store, ensuring that all stock is displayed in a professional and orderly manner;

- Ensure the store is maintaining a safe and hygienic environment at all times through general cleaning as you fulfil your regular duties;
- Provide administrative support if/when needed;
- Be conscious of visiting customers and stay vigilant for any potential shoplifters, raising any issues with store management;
- Any other reasonable management requests.
