[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Jinju City, Gyeongnam Province announced on the 9th that it is recruiting 15 local small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to participate in the ‘Online Trade Delegation’ for entering the Latin American markets such as Paraguay, Chile, and Argentina.

The city plans to address the marketing gap by utilizing online video consultations and promotional videos of company products, as face-to-face consultations have become difficult due to restrictions on local business activities caused by the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

Selected companies will be supported with costs for producing promotional videos, buyer discovery expenses, and interpretation fees to conduct vivid and efficient video consultations as if on-site.

Jinju Mayor Cho Gyu-il said, “I hope this will be an opportunity to expand export channels for companies struggling with overseas marketing due to COVID-19, leading to increased sales,” and added, “We will continue to prepare various support measures for local export SMEs in the post-COVID era, including untact marketing.”

Meanwhile, last year, the city proactively responded to the COVID-19 situation by holding the ‘New Southern Market Online Video Export Consultation,’ achieving export consultation results worth 17.4 million USD.
