What it is
Huruchu (후루쮸) is a soft, taffy-style chewy candy in compact 28 g pouches. In Korea it’s typically sold as “mini Huruchu” with inners of 20 units, and flavors commonly include peach, strawberry, grape, and cola.
Manufacturing & import precedent: Listed in Korea’s import records as FEINS FOOD (Guangdong) Co., Ltd. (China) with Lam International as importer; labeled under candy (캔디류).

Why it sells (retail & e-commerce)
1. Right size, right price. 28 g singles hit the impulse price point and enable flexible promos (e.g., 3-for bundles).
2. Kid-approved flavors. The classic grape/strawberry/peach/cola lineup works across ages and geographies.
3. Operationally simple. 20-pack inners are easy to peg, bin, or box for party/reward programs and subscription inserts.
4. Sourcing clarity. Existing KR import/label precedent reduces ambiguity on specs and declarations for repeat orders or new lanes.
