[Jeonju=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Han-ho] Jeonju City will provide up to 7 million KRW to restaurants that replace floor tables with standing tables or renovate and improve seating areas, kitchens, and restrooms.

According to Jeonju City on the 30th, about 20 establishments, including general restaurants, snack bars, and bakeries in the Jeonju area, will be recruited to participate in the '2021 Restaurant Facility Improvement Project' until the 8th of next month.

This project is promoted to reduce the financial burden of facility improvements for self-employed business owners struggling due to the impact of COVID-19, raise hygiene standards in food service establishments, and create a safe dining environment.

Additionally, it aims to enhance convenience for disabled persons, the elderly, and pregnant women visiting restaurants.

Eligibility requires operating a food service business in Jeonju for more than six months and having no administrative sanctions within the past year.

Jeonju City prioritizes support for establishments converting floor tables to standing tables and also supports those replacing kitchen hygiene equipment such as hoods, burners, ventilation facilities, and floors, or renovating seating areas and restrooms.

The support amount covers 70% of the facility improvement costs, up to a maximum of 7 million KRW.

Food service business owners wishing to participate can download the application form and required documents from the Jeonju City website and apply in person at the Environmental Hygiene Division of Jeonju City.
