The iconic Kimchi Factory in Macon, opened in 2019, is now facing the risk of permanently closing, explained in a recent Facebook post.

A fundraiser has been started on GoFundMe as a final attempt to save the establishment before they would have to close for good. The page currently has a goal of $50,000.

"We haven’t been seeing a lot of business, our owner is currently experiencing some financial stresses, the price of everything we need for inventory is going up, our restaurant is in need of constant maintenance, we are unable to pay our employees on time, our inventory is shrinking, and we cannot keep upping our prices," said the restaurant's owner in a post on their GoFundMe page.

For the past five years, Kimchi Factory has been serving the Macon community as its only Korean restaurant.
