What OURHOME does
OURHOME (아워홈) is a South Korea-headquartered comprehensive food company founded in 1984, operating five interconnected business platforms: the Meal-Care Platform (institutional catering serving 500,000 customers daily across 750+ locations including offices, schools, hospitals, military bases, and hotels), Home-Meal Replacement (frozen meals, kimchi, soups, stews, and processed foods under brands like Onthego, KukbangJjigae, and Gu Family Ban Ga), Gourmet Platform (fine dining and food court operations including Kisara, Singka, Food Empire, and Currynerless Square at Incheon Airport), Total Food Solution (B2B food ingredient supply and consulting), and Global Meal-Care (overseas catering and inflight services in China, Vietnam, the US, Poland, and Mexico). The company is a majority-owned subsidiary of Hanwha Group following a 2025 restructuring that placed it within Hanwha Machinery & Service Holdings.
The company's underlying technical and physical infrastructure includes 14 logistics centers with cold chain systems supporting 24-hour nationwide delivery, 9 manufacturing plants, a Magok Food Research Center employing 130+ researchers across 39 research areas, and a procurement network spanning 1,500+ suppliers with direct sourcing from 50+ domestic regions and 30+ countries. Certifications include KOLAS (first in industry, 2005), HACCP, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 22000, and Smart HACCP. A March 2026 contract with Dassault Systèmes introduces an integrated PLM+LIMS R&D platform, the first of its kind in Korea's domestic food industry. AI usage is limited to operational applications: water consumption prediction, menu recommendation automation, and IoT-based factory automation.
Revenue mechanics span recurring contract-based institutional catering (subscription-style), HMR product sales through the Ourhome Mall e-commerce platform and Naver Smart Store (transactional), restaurant and concession transaction fees (airport food courts, fine dining), B2B ingredient distribution through the TFS portal, and international subscription-based catering including in-flight meals for 8 global airlines via HACOR Inc. The A1 Membership program (BLACK: 300,000 KRW/year; PURPLE: free) provides subscription-based loyalty. Disclosed 2025 consolidated revenue reached 2.45 trillion KRW, making OURHOME the largest dedicated food service operator in South Korea.
