[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] On the 21st, Geochang-gun, Gyeongnam Province, held a shipment ceremony for the export of apple juice to Taiwan at the agricultural corporation Uncle Farm, attended by county council members, the head of Geochang-gun Happy Rural Division, and Uncle Farm officials.

The export volume shipped that day was one 20-foot container (1,800 boxes of apple juice), which will be sold at Costco and convenience stores in Taiwan.

Uncle Farm, an agricultural corporation, participated in the 'Rural Convergence Industry Catalyst Project' promoted by the county last year and received support for agricultural product processing startups. The company achieved overseas expansion within one year of its establishment.

CEO Choi Jeong-hoon stated, "This export will not be a one-time event; we will continuously develop processed foods using local agricultural products to expand exports and become a company that contributes to the local community."

Following this, Lee Byung-joo, director of the Agricultural Technology Center, said, "It is significant that a newly established company has pioneered the Taiwanese market despite the difficulties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We will continue to do our best to support securing various export routes for local processed foods."
