About Master Kong

Master Kong is the largest instant noodle brand in the world by volume, holding roughly half the Chinese market. Its braised beef noodle flavour, launched in 1992, established the category in mainland China almost single-handedly. The company also bottles and distributes PepsiCo drinks across mainland China, an arrangement agreed in 2011 that gave PepsiCo a minority stake in its beverage subsidiary.
