The Federation of Korean Industries (FKI) is launching a campaign titled 'Chuseok Celebration: Promoting Consumption of Our Agricultural and Marine Products and Win-Win Cooperation with Small and Medium Enterprises' targeting employees of member companies to support rural farming and fishing communities and small and medium enterprises facing difficulties due to issues such as the discharge of contaminated water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan.

On the morning of the 11th, FKI Chairman Ryu Jin had a meal with employees in the company cafeteria featuring abalone porridge and other domestic seafood. Together with CJ Freshway, which manages the cafeteria meals, FKI will conduct a seafood safe consumption campaign offering seafood menus for one week starting from that day. Through this, they aim to raise awareness about the safety of domestic seafood and request support for fishermen and the fisheries industry.
