[Asia Economy Reporter Yuri Kim] Shinsegae Property announced on the 24th that starting with Starfield Hanam, all Starfield locations including Goyang, Anseong, and COEX Mall will hold the 'Small Business Win-Win Flea Market' to support small business owners and self-employed individuals struggling due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

Shinsegae Property explained that Starfield's 'Small Business Win-Win Flea Market' was organized to expand sales channels for small business owners and self-employed individuals while introducing unique and excellent products to customers. Launched in 2019, this is the fourth event. It has received great response from small business owners as it directly contributes to sales improvement, with over 120 participating stores to date. The event gathers distinctive and high-quality products in one place, drawing enthusiastic customer reactions.

The first venue for the 2021 Win-Win Flea Market is Starfield Hanam, held at the South Atrium (1F) until the 29th of this month.

A total of 10 companies are participating in this Hanam Win-Win Flea Market, offering a variety of products including jewelry, fashion accessories, designer stationery, and household goods. Customers can find jewelry, handmade hair accessories, casual bags, home fabrics, and natural home perfumes at reasonable prices.

A small business owner participating again this year after last year said, "Due to social distancing, opportunities to meet customers directly have decreased, which was disappointing, but thanks to the flea market, we can promote our products and interact with customers, which makes us happy." They added, "We want to express our gratitude to Starfield for continuously providing a platform for small business owners."

Im Young-rok, CEO of Shinsegae Property, said, "We are grateful to the over 120 small business stores that have participated in the Win-Win Flea Market so far, as well as to the customers who deeply understand and show great interest in the purpose of the market." He added, "We hope that small business owners facing difficulties due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic will expand their customer contacts and pioneer new sales channels through the Win-Win Flea Market, receiving practical help."

This year, about 40 stores will participate in the Starfield Small Business Win-Win Flea Market. After Hanam, the market will be held in Goyang (September 1?7), COEX Mall (September 20?26), and Anseong (September 27?October 3) in sequence.
