Free Shipping for 1,100 Black Winner Items from the 13th to 19th... Introducing One Seasonal Agricultural Product Each Month Until November

[Jeonju=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Han-ho] Jeonbuk Province announced on the 10th that it will sell ‘Wanju Heuksu-bak, Black Winner’ as the first Jeonbuk Saengsaeng Market Seasonal Taste special exhibition of the year.

Jeonbuk Province, together with the Jeonbuk Regional Headquarters of Nonghyup (Head Jeong Jae-ho) and the Jeollabuk-do Economic and Trade Promotion Agency (Director Lee Hyun-woong), will hold the first 2022 ‘Seasonal Taste - Wanju Heuksu-bak, Black Winner’ special exhibition from the 13th to the 19th of this month.

The Seasonal Taste, started in 2021 on the Jeonbuk Saengsaeng Market online mall, is a method that offers free shipping at discounted prices based on orders for limited quantities of seasonal agricultural products, catering to consumer preferences that focus on the value of the products.

The first Seasonal Taste item of this year, the Wanju Samnye ‘Black Winner Watermelon,’ is a new variety cultivated since 2020 by about 30 farms on the sandy soil along the Mangyeong River with good drainage.

In particular, only products with a crisp texture and high sugar content are shipped through joint sorting at the Samnye Nonghyup Agricultural Products Distribution Center (APC), supported by the province.

Consumers can order 5 to 7 kg of Samnye Black Winner watermelons at up to 40% discounted prices from June 13 to 19 through the Jeonbuk Saengsaeng Market or its app.

The quantity is limited to 1,100 units on a first-come, first-served basis, and the ordered watermelons will be shipped free of charge the day after harvest.

Additionally, customers who purchase over 20,000 KRW using NH Nonghyup Bank or Jeonbuk Bank cards can receive an additional 10% discount on the bill.

The Jeonbuk Seasonal Agricultural Products Seasonal Taste, which sold out in 2021, plans to continue by selecting one item each month until November this year.
