"Bibigo" is a combination of the words "bibi" in "bibimbap" and "go," which means "try," and it was introduced as a global Korean cuisine brand in 2010.

Cheiljedang literally translates to "number one sugar business." The company began as a sugar manufacturer, as the name implies. Initially, the enterprise produced flour, sugar, and cooking oil. Following that, the company began creating ready-to-eat foods with the hopes of providing consumers with simple-to-cook and nutritional items. In order to further this concept, they have created alternative cuisine brands like as Haetbap ready-cooked rice, traditional Haechandle sauce items, and Dasida spice powder.
