Providing Various Benefits Including Priority Online Marketing Support for Partner Stores

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] Yeosu City (Mayor Kwon Oh-bong) announced on the 24th that it is recruiting vendors for Namdo Market year-round.

'Namdo Market' is an online shopping mall operated by Jeollanam-do, with over 1,200 vendors offering more than 15,000 products including various agricultural, fishery, and livestock products as well as processed foods produced and processed within the province.

Jeollanam-do, which recorded sales of 32.6 billion KRW at Namdo Market last year, plans to strengthen online promotion by revamping the website into a video-based platform to adapt to changing consumer trends and distribution environments.

Eligibility for entry requires businesses currently engaged in agriculture, fishery, or livestock industries within the province as of the registration date, holding food manufacturing permits, possessing a certain scale of production capacity to sell products stably, and having registered for telecommunication sales.

Vendors can enjoy various benefits such as priority support for online promotion and marketing projects, free production of detailed product pages, and expanded sales through partnerships with large online shopping malls.

Required documents include the application form, a copy of the business registration certificate, telecommunication sales registration certificate, bankbook copy, and a participation commitment letter for Namdo Market. Final evaluation and selection will be conducted by Jeollanam-do through Yeosu City.

For more details, check the announcements on the Yeosu City website or contact the Specialty Products Development Division.

As of the end of last year, there are 73 vendors from Yeosu City participating in Namdo Market, generating sales of 1.567 billion KRW last year, significantly contributing to the sales increase of local agricultural and marine specialty products along with the Yeosu City Brand Pavilion on the Post Office Shopping Mall.
