Exploring Support Measures for Local Farms at Gangseo District Office

BNK Busan Bank (President Bang Seong-bin) has launched a campaign to promote the consumption of rice produced locally and support the income increase of farmers.


On the 12th, at the Busan Gangseo District Office, Lee Sang-ryong, Head of the Western and Gyeongnam Sales Headquarters of Busan Bank, and Kim Hyung-chan, Mayor of Gangseo District, shared a commitment to coexistence to overcome the crisis faced by local rice-producing farmers.


The Gangseo District Office is preparing measures to revitalize rice consumption and support farmers by uniting the local community, as local farmers are struggling due to recent decreases in rice consumption, price drops, and increased rice imports.


Busan Bank has promised to regularly purchase Gangseo District rice worth approximately 2 million KRW every month for its in-house cafeteria. Through this, it plans to support the local economy and contribute to stabilizing farmers' income.


Lee Sang-ryong, Head of the Western Gyeongnam Sales Headquarters at Busan Bank, said, “Participation in this rice consumption promotion campaign was planned to create an opportunity to alleviate the economic burden on farmers by seeking coexistence with the local community. We will continue various activities to revitalize the consumption of agricultural products in the Busan area together with Busan citizens.”



Busan Bank is also making efforts to support farmers by actively conducting relief activities, such as organizing an emergency disaster relief volunteer team for farms severely damaged by heavy rain in Gangseo District last September.

BNK Busan Bank officials are holding an agreement ceremony at Gangseo District Office to participate in a campaign promoting local rice consumption.
