The Pyongyang Chewing Gum Factory is a factory that manufactures chewing gum in Pyongyang, North Korea. The plant is run by Korea Ponghwa General.

History

The Pyongyang Gum Factory began operation in October 2003 in a 4400 m2 floor area facility, located on a 11900 m2 plot of land in Rakrang-guyok. Its annual production capacity was reported to be 1,200 tons. In 2008, it moved to a new location on Tong'il Street, Chung-guyok. The new building was constructed by soldiers from the Korean People's Army. Kim Jong-il made an inspection of the factory in January 2009. A picture book featuring the factory was published by Korea Pictorial in 2010.
