Presently, there is a high demand for peptide confectionery among local customers.

“Snacks made from peptide are a favourite of children,” said Jo In Sun living in Central District, Pyongyang. “Children like them and they are said to have marked effects on the growth of children and also help relieve fatigue, boost mobility and ensure metabolic balance, which makes them the first choice of parents.”

It is a worldwide trend to maintain health by taking various micronutrients, essential amino acids and proteins needed in the body through proper foods rather than medicines, which is exemplified by the ever-growing demand for such delicious and healthy foods as fermented soybean, or natto, bean-curd preserved in soy, natto nutritive paste and natto paste seasoned with garlic, ginger, red pepper and salt.

Steam-cell cosmetics are enjoying a burgeoning demand among women.

According to research findings, the cosmetics which contain various cell regeneration agents extracted from steam cells of human skin have remarkable effects on skin care with no harmful side effects.

They can nourish and smoothen inelastic, wrinkled, dry and darkened skins and remove freckles and blotches, especially among women in their twenties and older.

The “Narae” brand reminds many of the Narae Ceramic Factory.

Flowerpots produced by the factory are winning favour with professional gardeners and fans alike as they not only adds beauty to the flowers growing in them but also accentuate the cultural level of the people who cultivate them.

The factory also turns out much sought-after sanitary ware.

In order to satisfy the ever-developing taste in and growing demand for shoes, the Wonsan Leather Shoes Factory improved the shapes and quality of its “Maebongsan”-brand shoes and also made them light and comfortable.
