Uljugun announced that on the 16th, it held a special sales event for Uljurice (Hwangurice) and a promotional event for the Hometown Love Donation Program at the Nonghyup Distribution Center in Yangjae, Seoul.


The event was attended by Lee Soongeol, Mayor of Uljugun, Seo Beomsu, National Assembly member, the head of the Ulsan branch of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation, the head of Dubuk Nonghyup Cooperative, as well as representatives from Uljugun, Yeom Gidong, CEO of Nonghyup Distribution Co., Ltd., and executives from the Seoul branch of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation.


This special sales event was organized to introduce the excellence of Uljurice to consumers in the metropolitan area, open up new sales channels, and promote the consumption of local rice.
