Interpark "From Mineo to Jangeo, Seasonal Seafood at More Affordable Prices"

Conducting the 'Korea Genuine Fisheries Expo' Together with the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] Interpark announced on the 6th that it will hold the 'Korea Genuine Seafood Festival' promotion together with the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries (hereinafter referred to as MOF) to help fishermen affected by the downturn caused by the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Organized by MOF and running until the 19th, this promotion was planned to revitalize the domestic market, which has been stagnant due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, by promoting the consumption of seasonal seafood.

Interpark will first offer major benefits such as a 20% discount coupon exclusive to the promotion and an additional 10% overlapping discount coupon. Coupons can be issued once per ID and can be used immediately upon issuance. Additionally, a 5% extra discount is provided when using the simple payment service ChaiPay. Key products include summer seasonal seafood such as three size 3 domestic semi-dried min-eo (croaker) (12,530 KRW), 500g of domestic prepared sea eel (13,930 KRW), and 1kg of domestic abalone with approximately 13 to 15 pieces (27,230 KRW).

Furthermore, Interpark plans to hold regular and ongoing seafood promotions in partnership with MOF until the end of the year, starting with this promotion. Jung Ho-na, Interpark’s fresh food MD, said, "In the case of seafood, when demand decreases and the shipment volume of seasonal products accumulates, it causes not only product quality issues but also significant damage to fishermen, so balancing supply and demand by season is very important." She added, "Through this event held together with MOF, we hope that more people can purchase high-quality seasonal seafood at affordable prices and that it will also help revitalize the domestic market."
