[Sinan=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-kyung] On the 19th, Sinan-gun, Jeollanam-do held a completion ceremony for the Sinan-gun Fisheries Cooperative Songgong Multifunctional Auction Hall near Cheonsa Bridge at Songgong Port, Amhae-eup.

The newly completed Songgong Multifunctional Auction Hall replaces the old auction hall and was constructed with a total project cost of approximately 7.8 billion KRW.

Meanwhile, Sinan-gun Fisheries Cooperative operates the Songgong Auction Hall, Songdo Auction Hall, and Heuksan Auction Hall, ranking 6th nationwide in auction amount in 2020 and 4th nationwide in 2021 among all fisheries cooperatives in Korea.
