Our Mission
The Korean Convenience mission is to help individuals find and discover prepackaged Korean food products. To shop, cook, and eat as conveniently as possible whether you’re at your local convenience store, shopping online, or traveling abroad. Let’s face it, the world is tough enough buying groceries shouldn’t be one of those obstacles.
Meet The Founder
Hello or 안녕하세요! I’m Erica Dozer, the Founder/CEO of Korean Convenience. I manage food allergies (shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts) in my daily life. Actually, I’m one of four people in my family with a shellfish allergy.
I created Korean Convenience after I returned from living in South Korea. I experienced firsthand what it’s like to walk into a convenience store and feel utterly helpless because I couldn’t read the product labels written in Hangul. I tried doing simple translations and found how time-consuming and frustrating it’s to research multiple ingredients listed on one prepackaged product.
I interviewed individuals in the allergy community, dietitians, and allergy specialists. With their assistance, I created Korean Convenience a free mobile app to assist people with food allergies and intolerances to find ready-made Korean food easier.
