[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heung-soon] Incheon International Airport Corporation announced on the 5th that it has launched the 'Local Small Business COVID-19 Crisis Overcome Support' project linked with local currency to support the sales increase of small business owners in the airport ecosystem and local crisis industries who are struggling due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

Since the 1st, Incheon Airport Corporation has been supporting the sales increase of local small businesses by providing an additional accumulation of up to 10% per industry on top of the existing accumulation rate (10%) when citizens pay with local currency (Incheon e-eum) at about 15,000 designated franchise stores in the supported industries. Through this support, it is expected that more than 29 billion KRW in new sales will be generated.

Airport ecosystem-related industries such as travel and duty-free shops can receive an additional 10% accumulation, while other local crisis industries can receive an additional 5%. Specific eligible franchise stores can be checked on the Incheon e-eum website.

Kim Kyung-wook, President of Incheon Airport Corporation, said, "I hope this support project will be a small help to small business owners who are facing management crises due to COVID-19," and added, "As a public institution, we plan to faithfully fulfill our social responsibility to overcome the social and economic crisis caused by COVID-19."
