[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Shim Kyung-taek] The Yeosu Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Jeonnam has taken the first step in improving the environment of traditional markets and shopping districts in the Yeosu area.


To revitalize traditional markets, Yeosu Chamber of Commerce identified projects through a field survey of traditional markets and a meeting held on May 26 with representatives of Yeosu's traditional markets, small business owners, and shopping districts, including: free installation of hand dryers in restrooms, a campaign to distribute shopping cart bags for visitors to traditional markets, replacement of old chairs for street vendors, online sales channel development training for market merchants, and free rental of communication spaces for small business owners at the Yeosu Chamber of Commerce.


On June 25, the Yeosu Chamber of Commerce executives, Yeosu city officials, and the president of the Yeosu Factory Managers Association visited Yeosu Fishery Market to inspect restroom conditions, personally install hand dryers, and listen to on-site difficulties.


On the same day, Yeosu Chamber of Commerce also held a donation ceremony for the free installation of 32 hand dryers in traditional markets and shopping districts.


At the ceremony, Chairman Lee Yong-gyu said, “Starting with the installation of hand dryers, a full-scale project to revitalize the local commercial district is beginning,” adding, “We will continue to promote effective projects for traditional market merchants and visitors.”



Previously, Yeosu Chamber of Commerce reduced or boldly abolished unnecessary exhibition projects to save budget, and used the saved funds to prepare for environmental improvement projects to revitalize local traditional markets.
