Various Events to Enjoy Local Agricultural and Specialty Products at Affordable Prices
Pohang Market Discount Promotion and Seol Holiday Direct Market for Agricultural and Specialty Products

Pohang City is conducting various events to stimulate consumer sentiment, which has been weakened by high inflation and economic downturn, and to stabilize grocery prices by supporting reasonable consumption of agricultural and specialty products produced by local farms.


First, from the 6th to the 31st, a discount promotion will be held at ‘Pohang Market,’ an excellent local online agricultural and specialty product shopping mall.


Forty-three companies will participate, offering over 470 items at discounts of up to 60%. Additionally, a ‘Lucky Purchase Customer Event’ will be held, where 100 customers who purchase more than 30,000 won will receive 10,000 points cashback, and 5 customers will be awarded 50,000 won Onnuri gift certificates.


There are also various events such as the ‘Good Consumption Support Comment Event,’ where the first 300 people who write comments supporting the stabilization of the local livelihood economy and good consumption will receive 3,000 points.


On the 23rd and 24th, a ‘Seol Holiday Agricultural and Specialty Products Direct Market’ connecting farmers and consumers will be operated at the City Hall Plaza.


At the direct market, holiday gifts, fruits, fresh vegetables, grains, mushrooms, and seafood seasonal products can be purchased directly from farmers at reasonable prices.


From the 21st to the 28th, the Pohang City Forestry Cooperative’s local food direct store will offer a ‘Local Agricultural and Specialty Products Discount Support,’ providing up to a 20% discount (with a limit of 20,000 won per person) on purchases of agricultural products and livestock products (fresh eggs) produced by local farms.


This project is newly launched by Pohang City this year to support sales promotion at local food direct stores and to help stabilize sales channels for small local farms.



Lee Hyun-joo, Director of the Agricultural Technology Center, said, “We have prepared various events to stabilize living costs and promote sales of locally produced agricultural and specialty products for the Seol holiday. We hope many citizens will participate.”
