The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education will hold the 'Severe Disability Products Purchase Expo' on the 4th of next month at the Suwon Yeongtong Southern New Office.


Since 2017, the Office of Education has held the expo annually to promote and sell products made by vocational facilities for people with severe disabilities in the province, but for the past three years, the event was conducted online due to COVID-19.


This expo is jointly hosted for the first time by the Office of Education, which recently relocated to the Gyeonggi Convergence Town, Gyeonggi Province, and the Gyeonggi Disabled Sales Facilities.


The three organizations have joined forces to promote and expand sales channels for products made by people with disabilities in the province, who have been facing difficulties due to the prolonged economic downturn.


The expo will feature 44 vocational rehabilitation facilities for people with disabilities, school enterprises, and the Educational Institution Electronic Procurement System (S2B), exhibiting and selling over 80 types of products including office supplies, daily necessities, and food items.


Lee Geun-gyu, Director of Financial Management at the Office of Education, said, "We hope this expo will improve awareness of products made by people with severe disabilities," adding, "We hope it will be the beginning of valuable consumption that leads to job creation and increased income for people with disabilities, paving the way for their future."



The Office of Education will simultaneously conduct online sales through the Severe Disability Products Shopping Mall and the Educational Institution Electronic Procurement System (S2B) until July 14 to create various sales channels for products made by people with severe disabilities.
