Martial Arts, 'Big Buyer Video Consultation Meeting' Held

[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Yoon-joo] The Korea International Trade Association (KITA) held the "1st KITA Big Buyer Club Linked Online Video Consultation" on the 11th at the KITA Business Center in Trade Tower, Samseong-dong.

The video consultation is a series event held every two weeks and will continue indefinitely until the COVID-19 situation stabilizes and offline marketing activities such as domestic and international exhibitions and consultations return to normal.

In this first event, four big buyers participated, including Shenzhen TSL of Vanguard, China’s largest distribution group, the Malaysian branch of Aeon Group, Japan’s second-largest distribution conglomerate, and Dimarco Mitra Utama, an Indonesian home shopping and online mall operator. They conducted video consultations for eight hours with 20 domestic consumer goods and food export companies.

The association provides free interpretation services to participating companies and supports the cost of sending sample products to compensate for the fact that buyers cannot directly see or experience the products through video consultations.

Kim Hyun-chul, Head of Global Marketing at the Trade Association, stated, "Following the KITA Big Buyer Club linked video consultations, we are also promoting video consultations for manufacturing companies linked with 306 specialized trading companies, as well as on-demand online non-face-to-face matching services for overseas buyers."

The KITA Big Buyer Club is an overseas big buyer network operated by the association since 2011, composed of buyers with high recognition and large distribution networks by country and region. Currently, 77 companies are members, including 26 from Greater China, 16 from Europe, 14 from ASEAN, 11 from South Asia and the Middle East, 6 from the Americas, 3 from Japan, and 1 from Korea.
