More vegetarian meals coming to Korean Air

 

 

KIM JU-YEON, Korea JoongAng Daily - Shinsegae Food will develop plant-based meals for Korean Air in collaboration with the carrier's in-flight meal supplier, the catering company said Monday.

 

Under a memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed Friday, the firm will develop plant-based food products and menu items across different cuisines customized for in-flight meals. Korean Air C&D Service will create in-flight meals utilizing those plant-based products anddeploy them across the airline.

 

The two companies will also work together to increase supply chains for Korean Air C&D Service's ready-to-eat My Chef products through Shinsegae affiliates, Shinsegae Food said.

 

Shinsegae Food CEO Song Hyun-seok and Korean Air C&D Service CEO Choi Deok-jin attended Friday's signing ceremony.

 

“We joined forces with Korean Air to allow customers who enjoy plant-based foods for health or other value-based consumption reasons to choose from a diverse menu,” the company said in a news release. “We will further continue to create menus using plant-based foods in areas other than in in-flight catering.”
