Jangseong-gun Receives 'Best Award' in Comprehensive Evaluation of Agricultural Product Distribution and Agro-food Tasks

[Jangseong=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Jo Hangyu] Jangseong-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Yoo Doo-seok) announced on the 28th that it won the grand prize in the Jeollanam-do-led ‘Comprehensive Evaluation of Agricultural Product Distribution and Agro-food Business’.

In this evaluation, Jeollanam-do assessed the performance of agro-food distribution tasks this year by local governments across 14 items in 5 areas, including activation of online and offline distribution of specialty agricultural products, establishment of agro-food industry infrastructure, and quality control, and announced the results.

Throughout the year, the county was highly praised for quickly responding to the non-face-to-face situation by pioneering various sales channels such as promoting new entries to the Jeollanam-do specialty product comprehensive shopping mall (Namdo Jangteo) and holding TV home shopping special exhibitions.

To improve the agro-food distribution system, the county built a local food direct store and achieved remarkable results, such as being selected as an excellent local government in the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs’ ‘Local Food Index Results Announcement and Excellent Local Government Awards’ after about two years of promoting the food plan.

Governor Yoo Doo-seok said, “In the new year, we will respond to changes in the distribution market through diversified sales channel expansion and complete the foundation of the Jangseong-type food plan early to stabilize the income of small and medium farmers.”
