Kim Kyung-ho, Mayor of Gwangjin District

Gwangjin-gu (Mayor Kim Kyung-ho) is launching a project to support up to 1 million KRW for kitchen environment improvement costs targeting 30 small-scale general restaurants.

The district will cover 70% (up to 1 million KRW) of the cleaning or replacement costs for kitchen ventilation facilities such as hoods and ducts, walls, floors, and pest control facilities. This aims to alleviate the financial burden of improving aging kitchen facilities for small-scale general restaurants and provide consumers with a hygienic food environment.

In particular, this is expected to provide practical assistance to small restaurants facing management difficulties amid the ongoing economic downturn.

The support targets businesses that have been in operation for more than one year from the date of business registration or status succession, with a business area of 100㎡ (30 pyeong) or less. Thirty businesses will be finally selected based on a comprehensive evaluation of factors such as low annual sales, long business continuity, urgency of environmental improvement, and participation in food culture improvement projects.

The application period is from the 10th to the 27th. Businesses wishing to participate should prepare the project application form, project plan, a copy of the business registration certificate, and other required documents, and apply in person or by mail to the Health and Hygiene Division of the Gwangjin-gu Public Health Center.

For more details, please check the announcement posted in the Notices section on the Gwangjin-gu Office website, and inquiries can be directed to the Health and Hygiene Division for guidance.

Mayor Kim Kyung-ho said, “We hope this will help small restaurants striving to provide safe food,” adding, “We will create a Gwangjin-gu where both business owners and consumers are happy.”
