Productivity Headquarters and Gapyeong-gun Join Hands to Support Small Business Management Environment Improvement

Strengthening Competitiveness of Local Small Businesses in the County through Consulting and Business Expense Support

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] The Korea Productivity Center (Chairman An Wanki, hereinafter KPC) announced on the 1st that it has signed a business agreement with Gapyeong-gun (Governor Kim Seong-ho) to promote the improvement of the management environment for small business owners and plans to support the strengthening of competitiveness for more than 100 small business owners this year.

Both organizations will promote ▲ training related to enhancing store owners' capabilities and business execution ▲ implementation of management environment improvement projects and support for project expenses ▲ consultation on management difficulties and on-site consulting for small business owners targeting more than 100 small business owners this year to ensure sustainable management and strengthen business competitiveness. The target is small business operators who have started a business or have been located in Gapyeong-gun for more than three months. Applications will be accepted from the 14th to the 18th.

The Gapyeong-gun Small Business Management Environment Improvement Project is a project aimed at resolving difficulties in the business sites of small business owners in the region and revitalizing the local economy. Gapyeong-gun initiated this project for the first time this year due to the increasing difficulties faced by local small business owners as a result of COVID-19 and other factors. KPC has been operating the small business management environment improvement project since 2019. Starting with Ansan City, it supported the management environment improvement of small business owners in six local governments including Dongducheon City and Yangju City last year. This year, it is cooperating with Gapyeong-gun, Anyang City, Namyangju City, and Uiwang City to support the improvement of the management environment for small business owners.

Kim Young-eun, a specialist of the Small Business Support Team at KPC, stated, "We aim to contribute to the revitalization of the Gapyeong-gun local economy by helping small business owners, whose management burdens are increasing due to COVID-19 and other factors, strengthen their business competitiveness and establish a stable foundation for independence."
