A total of 49 outstanding women-owned companies, including those located in Sodam Square Daegu, will participate in this special exhibition. Sodam Square Daegu is a support organization that helps small business owners in the Daegu and Gyeongbuk regions enter and transition to digital commerce. Since signing a tripartite Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with YeoGyeongHyeop and Sodam Square Daegu in March, Coupang has continued to support the economic vitality of local women-owned businesses.

At the special exhibition, about 800 products across various categories such as food, household goods, and kitchenware will be available at a 10% discount. Representative products include yogurt, bakery items, and tea. Wow Membership members can receive their orders via Rocket Fresh dawn delivery by the next morning.

A representative from YeoGyeongHyeop stated, "The co-prosperity exhibition with Coupang, which has continued since last year, has resolved many difficulties faced by women entrepreneurs in securing sales channels and marketing," adding, "As the number of promising women-owned businesses increases every year, we will continue to seek cooperative measures for mutual growth between Coupang and women-owned businesses."

Earlier, to discover outstanding women-owned businesses, Coupang signed a business agreement with YeoGyeongHyeop in October last year and has been operating the 'Women Entrepreneurs Special Exhibition' on an ongoing basis since November. According to Coupang, the sales of 60 women-owned businesses participating in the 'Women Entrepreneurs Special Exhibition' from November 2022 to January 2023 increased by about 30% compared to the same period the previous year. Since then, the number of companies participating in the exhibition has steadily increased, with about 400 companies participating to date.
