PreKitchen Lab Secures Seed Investment from LG Electronics and Bluepoint

PreKitchen Lab has secured seed investment from LG Electronics and Bluepoint Partners. This funding will be used for the development of technology that integrates and manages kitchen automation equipment. PreKitchen Lab has been raising funds since its establishment as an independent entity through LG Electronics and Bluepoint's internal venture program, 'Studio 341'. The scale of the investment and the company's valuation have not been disclosed. PreKitchen Lab is a startup led by CEO Yoo Jin-ho that supports the introduction of robotics and operational optimization. The company is currently developing an integrated control system utilizing AIoT modules to address the issue of data dispersion caused by differences in communication methods between kitchen equipment. This system connects equipment status, orders, sales, and work progress to enhance operational efficiency. In April, LG Electronics selected PreKitchen Lab among four teams as a final spin-off target during the Studio 341 Demo Day. The restaurant automation market is growing due to labor cost pressures and the demand for operational efficiency, and PreKitchen Lab is currently in discussions for pilot projects with franchise headquarters.
