Yangcheon Startup Support Center and BaedalCook Sign MOU for Culinary Industry Experts to Share Startup Know-How and Provide Consulting

Recruiting 14 Participants Until March 16, 9-Week Course Starting March 22, Combining Theory and Practice, Including Signature Menu Demonstrations

Yangcheon-gu (District Mayor Lee Gi-jae) announced that the Yangcheon Startup Support Center (75 Sinjeong-ro 7-gil), which supports one-stop startup preparation, is operating a 'Culinary Startup Class' where current culinary industry expert instructors share management know-how, and is recruiting 14 prospective entrepreneurs until the 16th.

Last month on the 10th, the district signed a business agreement between the Yangcheon Startup Support Center (hereafter 'the Center') and BaedalCook Co., Ltd., a shared kitchen franchise specialist company, agreeing to operate a basic culinary startup program to promote a healthy startup culture and social value expansion.

The 'Culinary Startup Class' will run for 9 weeks starting March 22, with 36 hours of weekly education once a week, combining 24 hours of theoretical lectures and 3 practical sessions under the guidance of specialized instructors for each topic.

The curriculum includes ▲commercial district and location analysis ▲cost analysis, inventory, and profit management ▲brand development and related laws such as tax and labor ▲service and hygiene mindset ▲delivery order management ▲open marketing and startup case studies.

In particular, during practical sessions, franchise representatives will share methods for establishing cooking systems and recipes honed through years of experience, along with demonstrations and feedback on signature menus, which is expected to be highly applicable in the field.

The recruitment target is 14 residents wishing to start a business, and applications can be submitted through the Center’s website until March 16. The tuition fee is 140,000 KRW. Based on the results of operating the basic culinary startup class, the Center plans to expand and operate an advanced course in the future.

Besides this, the Center serves as a control tower for startup support, providing customized counseling, consulting, and mentoring for prospective entrepreneurs to set a successful startup direction.

Additionally, the Center offers open office spaces, meeting rooms, and seminar rooms for use by any prospective entrepreneur, and runs programs sharing related information such as creator startup cultivation classes and startup networking.

Lee Gi-jae, Mayor of Yangcheon-gu, stated, “If prospective entrepreneurs build a foundation through the ‘Yangcheon Startup Support Center’ and develop their capabilities step-by-step to start their business, the failure rate will be correspondingly lower,” adding, “We will continue to form a one-stop startup support network to create a vibrant city of Yangcheon where anyone can challenge new possibilities.”
