Pepero
Pepero offers two distinct packaging options: one tailored for the Korean market and another for the European market. In the Korean packaging, the brand name 'Pepero' is written in Korean script, reflecting the local language and cultural identity. On the European packaging, 'Pepero' is presented in a European translation, making it accessible for people who may not be familiar with the Korean script. This strategic adaptation ensures that the brand is easily recognizable and pronounceable across diverse regions, aligning with Pepero's commitment to sharing its delicious chocolate stick treats with a global audience.
A Pepero Tale
The fun story all began in Korea during the 1980s. An award-winning company LOTTE which is the producer and seller of Pepero sticks started to notice that every year on the 11th of November their sales increased drastically. The company decided to do research and found out that as a way of teasing each other because of the shape of these chocolate-covered pretzel sticks, many school girls were buying Pepero sticks to give to their friends as a funny reminder to stay thin. However, there have been many stories about the origin of Pepero day so nobody knows if this is true!
