Designation of Fisheries and Fresh Produce Retail District as Alley-type Shopping Street

From this Chuseok, Onnuri gift certificates can also be used at the Ulsan Agricultural and Marine Products Wholesale Market.


The Ulsan Agricultural and Marine Products Wholesale Market Management Office announced on the 8th that, starting from the 7th, the seafood retail building and the fruit and vegetable retail building within the agricultural and marine products market have been designated as alley-type shopping districts (Nam-gu Nos. 5 and 6).


Accordingly, 74 stores in the seafood retail building and 93 stores in the fruit and vegetable retail building of the agricultural and marine products wholesale market are now included as eligible for support under the "Special Act on the Promotion of Traditional Markets and Shopping Districts," enabling payment with Onnuri gift certificates.


Payments will be possible after the retail stores complete registration as Onnuri gift certificate affiliated stores, which is expected to be completed before Chuseok.


An official from the Agricultural and Marine Products Wholesale Market Management Office said, "The designation of the retail buildings in the agricultural and marine products wholesale market as alley-type shopping districts is expected to benefit both small business owners and consumers within the market."



The agricultural and marine products wholesale market was established under the "Act on the Distribution and Price Stabilization of Agricultural and Marine Products" and has not been classified as a traditional market, so until now, retail stores and restaurants within the wholesale market could not register as Onnuri gift certificate affiliated stores.
