[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Young-tae] Jeonbuk Economic and Trade Promotion Agency (hereinafter referred to as Gyeongjinwon) announced on the 27th that it will conduct a non-face-to-face online overseas buyer export consultation program to overcome the prolonged COVID-19-related poor performance and stagnation of export companies in the province, and to pioneer new markets and expand sales channels through diversification of export support platforms.

Starting with India on the 3rd of last month, Gyeongjinwon achieved $8.15 million in export consultation amounts through 127 non-face-to-face online consultations between 76 local companies and overseas buyers from major Southeast Asian export countries such as Vietnam, Japan, and Thailand.

On the 28th, as a new client discovery program for entering the new Northern market including Russia and Eastern Europe, which are showing continuous economic growth, 20 local Russian buyers will be invited online to conduct focused consultations with 10 local companies.

Director Jo Ji-hoon emphasized, “It is necessary to support small and medium-sized enterprises’ exports by taking advantage of the elevated status of South Korea, boosted by effective responses to the COVID-19 crisis such as K-quarantine and K-bio, as an opportunity for market entry.”
