Kim'C Market participated in the 2026 TAAF Heritage Month Summit: AAPI Marketplace, held May 14–15 at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City.
The Asian American Foundation (TAAF) hosts its annual Heritage Month Summit each May, bringing together leaders and changemakers from across the AAPI community — spanning business, culture, media, philanthropy, and public life. This year's edition, themed "Together We Are the Asian+American Dream," was TAAF's largest summit to date and marked the foundation's fifth anniversary. The AAPI Marketplace is a featured component of the summit, spotlighting small businesses and community organizations from across the AAPI community.
At this year's marketplace, Kim'C Market brought a carefully curated selection of Korean artisan pantry staples: rice milled fresh in New York, Kisoondo gochujang and soy sauce, Jukjangyeon gochujang and doenjang, Jeju Nature & Vinegar's Jeju Tangerine Balsamic, and Grand Perilla Oil. The booth drew strong interest from attendees, many of whom were encountering Korean artisan food products for the first time.
