H Mart is the premier Asian-American supermarket chain in the United States, celebrated for its vast selection of Korean specialty goods and fresh international ingredients. Founded in 1982 in Queens, New York, the name "H Mart" is short for Han Ah Reum, meaning "one arm full of groceries." Beyond its extensive produce, live seafood, and pre-marinated bulgogi meats, the stores are renowned for their food halls and in-house bakeries, transforming a routine grocery trip into a culinary destination.

The chain has become a significant cultural landmark, bolstered by the "Korean Wave" and mainstream hits like Michelle Zauner’s memoir, Crying in H Mart. Today, it operates over 100 locations globally, offering everything from K-beauty products and high-end rice cookers to an unmatched variety of freshly prepared kimchi and banchan.
