Located in Namhae-gun, in the southern part of the Korean peninsula, DukSan Black Food Co., Ltd. was established in 2007 to focus on high-value-added black garlic products by using its own “Egarak” brand name and self-developed fermentation and ripening method.
It has made constant and intensive R&D endeavors through industry-academy cooperation with some research centers in the nation to provide the top quality black garlic products. DukSan Black Food has launched its own Egarak black garlic product, which has been attracting keen attention with the trend toward healthful, well-being foods among Korean consumers.
In Korea, black garlic is perceived as health supplementary food, and it is prized as a food rich in antioxidants and added to energy drinks, being known to increase the consumer's longevity. Black garlic’s popularity has spread to foreign countries as well, including the United States, as its health-promoting benefits are increasingly recognized.
DukSan Black Food is also expanding the market base in foreign countries such as Japan, Europe and the United States, as well as in the domestic market. The company uses garlic solely from Namhae which is famous for its clean and wonderful natural environment.

After the ripening and fermentation process, the garlic still retains the garlic’s original ingredients but does not have the spicy taste and too some people unpleasant smell of garlic, so anyone can enjoy the garlic’s various health benefits.
Particularly, the company’s flagship product Egarak Black Garlic Gangsan which has gone through 30 days of ripening and fermentation process without any chemical addition or additives is a great health supplementary food that does not have the spicy taste and smell of the fresh garlic, and can thus be enjoyed by anyone.
