Approximately 30,000 Households in 31 Cities and Counties Including Suwon Receive Supplies Through Damyang Nonghyup Eco-Friendly Public Meal Center

[Damyang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Eco-friendly agricultural products from Damyang will be supplied as ‘healthy fruit packages’ to families with children in Gyeonggi Province.

On the 23rd, Damyang County in Jeollanam-do announced that the Damyang Nonghyup Eco-friendly Public Food Service Center was finally selected as the supplier for the healthy fruit package supply project for children in home care in Gyeonggi Province, and will supply healthy fruit packages to about 30,000 families in 31 cities and counties including Suwon City until the end of this year.

Five locations including Damyang were selected as suppliers, and each company plans to carry out tasks such as composing and delivering about 1.7 billion KRW worth of domestic fruit packages and managing safety and quality for about 30,000 children in home care per company.

The Damyang Nonghyup Eco-friendly Public Food Service Center currently supplies 5.8 billion KRW worth of eco-friendly agricultural products annually through supply contracts with 368 eco-friendly agricultural producers, 13 farming groups, and 143 producer organizations, including Seoul City’s urban-rural win-win public food service, packages for pregnant women, and genetically safe school meal supply projects.

In particular, since its completion last year, it has played the role of a non-genetically modified logistics hub throughout Jeollanam-do and established a planned production system for eco-friendly agricultural products, contributing to the expansion of deliveries of Damyang-grown agricultural products to eco-friendly public food services in large cities including Seoul.

County Governor Choi Hyungsik said, “We will generously support logistics costs and safety inspections to strengthen the hygiene and safety of eco-friendly agricultural products produced in the clean area of Damyang, the bamboo forest clear ecological city,” and added, “We will focus on securing stable sales channels for local farmers by expanding the supply of school public food services in the metropolitan area.”
