Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK) announced today (25 August 2025) that a Korean restaurant operator, Modu Consulting Limited, has brought two Korean restaurant brands, Yoajung and Mapo Tofu House, to Hong Kong. This strategic move underscores Hong Kong's position as a key hub for international food and beverage (F&B) brands and highlights the city's vibrant culinary scene.
Associate Director-General of Investment Promotion at InvestHK, Mr Arnold Lau, said, “We are delighted to support Modu Consulting in bringing Yoajung and Mapo Tofu House to Hong Kong. The city’s strategic location, a strong Korean cultural influence and community, and vibrant food culture make it an ideal place for Korean F&B brands to thrive. We look forward to seeing these brands to expand via Hong Kong.”
The Director of F&B at Modu Consulting Limited, Mr Cho Min Hyuk, said, "Hong Kong is one of the most attractive regions in APAC for Korean restaurant brands to expand their international business. The city’s world-class logistics system, dynamic demographic and cosmopolitan population provide an excellent testing ground for new menu items and concepts. We are confident that Yoajung and Mapo Tofu House will resonate well with the local community."
Mr Cho said, Yoajung’s signature yogurt ice cream with various toppings has already made a splash in Hong Kong with its first store located in Tai Kok Tsui. Building on the success of its recently launched Acai Bowl in Korea, Yoajung is set to introduce this popular menu item to Hong Kong soon. The brand is also gearing up to open its second store in Tseung Kwan O this September.
Located in Lai Chi Kok, Mapo Tofu House offers an authentic Korean dining experience led by a Korean head chef with over 15 years of experience. The brand’s mission is to share the genuine taste and service of Korea with Hong Kong locals at an affordable price. Mapo Tofu House has quickly become a favorite among those seeking authentic Korean cuisine in the city, he added.
InvestHK has been actively attracting Korean enterprises to set up or expand in Hong Kong. In February this year, following the visit of the Director-General of Investment Promotion, Ms Alpha Lau, to Seoul, Korea, the department successfully facilitated a delegation of Korean food and beverage companies to visit the city. This further facilitated exchanges between Korean and local F&B companies and highlighted the business opportunities in this sector.
