[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young]Market Kurly announced on the 9th that it will operate a monthly themed section called "Good Consumption," which gathers zero waste products that reduce garbage output, fair trade items that consider workers' rights, and vegan products that protect animals, until the 30th of this month.


In line with social consumption trends, Kurly selects sustainable products beneficial to producers, consumers, and the environment, including eco-friendly, organic, zero waste, fair trade, and animal protection items. As of November, it sells over 900 related products.


This month, Market Kurly introduces about 40 carefully selected ethical consumption products sold on its platform. First, as zero waste products, it features ‘Donggubat’s’ proper shampoo & rinse bars made in solid form without separate containers, leaving nothing behind after use, and ‘Silliman’s’ silicone food pouches made from silicone material that can be reused multiple times instead of single-use plastic bags.


Fair trade products that protect the human rights of producers and workers in developing countries and help them become self-reliant by paying fair prices are also showcased. These include ‘Equal’s’ fair trade Peru cocoa made only from child labor-free cacao, and ‘Puka’s’ organic tea products ethically cultivated in organic environments and aimed at paying fair compensation, providing opportunities to contribute to the environment and society.


Kurly also proposes vegan products that do not conduct animal testing and use plant-based ingredients as part of good consumption. Among vegan beauty products expanding from skincare items like toners and creams to makeup and perfumes, it recommends ‘Melixir’s’ toner, cream, and lip butter, launched by Korea’s first vegan skincare brand. It also introduces ‘Ondo’s’ Gujeolcho line, a vegan beauty product made using effective ingredients from plants grown on Korean soil.



Meanwhile, Market Kurly offers a 10% discount coupon that provides up to 10,000 KRW off on purchases over 20,000 KRW for products in the themed section.
