The signing ceremony held on the 14th at the Jeonbuk Special Self-Governing Province Office was attended by Governor Kim Kwan-young, Gochang County Governor Shim Deok-seop, and Lee Jeong-seong, Head of Daesang Jongga RPD Division. The agreement discussed detailed implementation plans for the key contents of the agreement, as well as the progress and vision of the agricultural life industry complex promotion in Jeonbuk Special Self-Governing Province.

This agreement aims to establish an environment for the continuous production of kimchi, a traditional food, to position Jeollabuk-do as a national hub for the kimchi industry and to revitalize the local economy. In particular, the company explained that it is especially meaningful as it was signed as the first of seven agricultural life industry complexes selected by Jeollabuk-do for 2025.

Through this agreement, Daesang will support not only the organization of farms producing kimchi raw materials, quality standardization, and upgrading of the kimchi industry's quality by transferring technology for all processes including kimchi production, harvesting, and storage, but also the activation of distribution. Jeollabuk-do and Gochang-gun plan to support production infrastructure, automation of agricultural machinery, and the creation of an environment for attracting companies to discover additional special cases desired by farmers and enterprises within the agricultural life industry complex and to foster a hub complex for kimchi raw material supply.

Lee Jeong-seong, Head of Daesang Jongga RPD Division, said, "It is meaningful to participate together in the development of the agricultural life industry complex, which fosters the agricultural life industry, the field where Jeonbuk has the greatest strength," and added, "Through this cooperation agreement, we will work together to develop the Gochang Four-Season Kimchi Industrial Complex as a national hub for the kimchi industry."
