Suncheon City, Additional Recruitment of Food Truck Operators for Suncheonman Night Market

Recruiting 33 Food Truck Operators Until the 12th

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Suncheon City (Mayor Heo Seok) announced on the 22nd that it will additionally recruit operators for the Suncheonman Night Market food trucks by the 12th of next month to revitalize the real economy through the expansion of stay-type tourism.

Last September, the city recruited 17 operators for the Suncheonman Night Market food trucks and is conducting additional recruitment to fill the original target of 50 trucks.

The recruitment target is 33 food trucks (23 general, 9 social security, 1 youth). Applicants must be registered residents of Suncheon City at the time of the recruitment announcement and either own a 1-ton cargo vehicle or be able to own one after final selection to be eligible to participate.

The city plans to select candidates through a first round of document screening to verify disqualifications, followed by a second round of on-site evaluation by professional judges. Selected candidates will receive up to 16 million KRW to support food truck remodeling costs and other expenses.

Those wishing to participate can check the recruitment details on the Suncheon City website, fill out the application form, and submit it by mail or in person to the Regional Economy Division of Suncheon City Hall by the 12th of next month.

A Suncheon City official said, “The key to a successful night market opening is the variety and taste of food trucks, so we hope many citizens confident in their cooking skills will participate.”

Meanwhile, the Suncheonman Night Market, being developed along the Dongcheon Stream retention basin area to promote stay-type tourism and attract visitors to the Suncheonman National Garden downtown, is preparing infrastructure, cultural performances, and flea markets with the goal of opening in the second half of this year, considering the COVID-19 situation.
