Incheon City Offers Up to 20,000 Won Onnuri Gift Certificates for Purchasing Domestic Seafood

Incheon City will hold a consumption promotion event until the end of the year to revitalize seafood consumption.

According to the city on the 18th, customers who purchase domestic seafood at the Jung-gu Incheon General Fish Market and Namdong-gu Soraepogu Traditional Fish Market will receive 40% of their purchase amount on the same day, up to a maximum of 20,000 won per person, in Onnuri gift certificates. The distribution period is from September 21 to 27, before Chuseok, and from next month until the end of the year, a one-week event period will be designated each month.

Depending on the purchase amount, customers can receive 10,000 won in Onnuri gift certificates for purchases over 25,000 won, and 20,000 won for purchases over 50,000 won. During the event period, each person can receive the benefit only once, and it will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis within the budget budget (350 million won per market) . The gift certificates are only given at participating stores within the market, excluding general restaurants, online gift certificate discount items, and government stock release items.

Previously, the Onnuri gift certificate distribution events were held only during holidays such as Chuseok and Lunar New Year. However, in response to the decline in seafood consumption sentiment due to the discharge of contaminated water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan and to promote the consumption of safe domestic seafood, the city implemented the program three times this year during the Lunar New Year, June, and August. Notably, starting from this Chuseok event, the Onnuri gift certificate refund rate has been increased from 30% to 40%.

An official from Incheon City stated, "We will maintain a continuous discount system until the end of the year so that citizens can always purchase domestic seafood at affordable prices."
