The Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation held an opening ceremony on the 8th for the expansion and relocation of its Bucheon branch.


On this day, Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation announced that it held the opening ceremony of the Bucheon branch with the attendance of Si Seok-jung, Chairman of the Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation; Jo Yong-ik, Mayor of Bucheon; Choi Seong-woon, Chairman of the Bucheon City Council; and Lee Jae-young, member of the Gyeonggi Provincial Council's Economic and Labor Committee (Democratic Party, Bucheon 3). The ceremony was also attended by the president of the Bucheon Small Business Association, local businesspeople, and financial institution officials.


The Bucheon branch began guarantee services for local companies and small business owners from the 30th of last month, ahead of the opening ceremony, to provide better services to customers.


After the opening ceremony, Jo Yong-ik, Mayor of Bucheon, took on the role of honorary branch manager for a day and personally consulted with representatives of companies and small business owners who visited the branch. One small business owner expressed satisfaction with the relocation of the Bucheon branch, stating that they have used the Bucheon branch of the Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation whenever funds were needed, and that this new office is the easiest to visit and has a pleasant interior environment.


Last year, Bucheon City contributed 4.188 billion KRW, double the amount of 2021, as special guarantee funds and was selected as an outstanding city/county in terms of contribution performance to the Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation. In August last year, Bucheon City introduced the 'Bucheon City Small Business Daily Recovery Special Guarantee,' which raised the guarantee limit and relaxed screening criteria for small and micro enterprises and small business owners.

Jo Yong-ik, Mayor of Bucheon, said, "As the honorary branch manager of the Bucheon branch for a day, I feel a heavy responsibility knowing that companies still face many difficulties on site," and promised, "We will continue to serve Bucheon’s businesses and always listen carefully to voices from the field to work on resolving their difficulties through communication."


Si Seok-jung, Chairman of the Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation, said, "It has been almost a year since the launch of the Kim Dong-yeon administration in the 8th term of local government," and added, "Going forward, the Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation will join hands with Bucheon City and the Gyeonggi Provincial Council to take the lead in supporting the sustainable growth of Gyeonggi Province."



Meanwhile, the Gyeonggi Credit Guarantee Foundation Bucheon branch is responsible for credit guarantees and rehabilitation support for small and medium-sized enterprises and small business owners in Bucheon City. The office is located on the 4th floor at 217 Sohyang-ro, Bucheon-si, Gyeonggi-do.
