Overseas business growth, including fertilizers and matcha, leads H2 performance.
Matcha and green tea exports hit $2.24 million, up 256% YoY.
Global green-bio company Nousbo (Co-CEOs Chang-kyun Kim and Kyung-won Lee) is raising expectations for earnings growth as it continues its strong overseas export momentum into the second half of the year.
Nousbo’s cumulative export value for July and August 2026 reached approximately $3.94 million, a 79% increase compared to $2.2 million during the same period last year. The fertilizer division maintained its substantial export volume, recording about $1.7 million (a 7.6% YoY increase). Notably, the matcha and green tea division saw a remarkable 256% surge, reaching approximately $2.24 million.
Fertilizer exports continue to generate stable growth across various countries, including Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, and Indonesia. In particular, exports to Japan saw a significant YoY increase, recording roughly $1.05 million. Indonesia also contributed to the H2 fertilizer export performance with $250,000 in exports.
The matcha and green tea business is also demonstrating steep growth in the global market. With cumulative July-August exports jumping about 256% YoY, it has firmly established itself alongside fertilizers as a core pillar driving Nousbo’s overseas business expansion.
A Nousbo official stated, “It is highly significant that overseas exports, centered on fertilizers, matcha, and green tea, have grown substantially YoY right at the start of the second half.” They added, “We plan to make our overseas business the core engine driving H2 earnings growth by expanding supply to existing export destinations while continuously developing new partners and markets. Furthermore, our fertilizer business is sharpening its competitive edge in overseas markets by focusing on high-functional and eco-friendly products that can effectively address changes in the global agricultural environment.”
