This event was organized to help expand the online sales channels of small and medium-sized merchants and small and medium enterprises located in Gyeongsangbuk-do. About 40 companies from Gyeongsangbuk-do participated in the evaluation meeting to showcase excellent local products and exchange online sales know-how.

Companies that join Coupang through this product evaluation meeting can also participate in Coupang's ongoing 'Cheer Up Korea, Gyeongbuk Sale Festa Promotion.' In the Coupang 'Gyeongbuk Sale Festa Promotion,' from March to December, the Gyeongsangbuk-do Economic Promotion Agency will provide immediate discount benefits worth 1 billion KRW, and Coupang will support an additional 1 billion KRW worth of marketing and advertising activities.



Kim Jong-il, Executive Director of Coupang Service Policy, said, "This evaluation meeting will be an opportunity to share online sales know-how and meet more consumers for small and medium enterprises and local small merchants struggling due to the economic downturn," adding, "We will continue to spare no support to help small and medium enterprises and small merchants facing difficulties in developing sales channels, along with revitalizing the local economy."
