The company has grown into a village enterprise that reflects the unique characteristics of the region and continues to be loved by visitors and customers at Ganjeolgott, a representative local tourist destination.
Following the selection as an outstanding village enterprise, Uljugun and Ganjeolgott Baekkot Maeul Co., Ltd. signed an agreement on April 29 and plan to accelerate efforts to diversify their products and enhance brand competitiveness. With 70 million won in business support funds, they will strengthen their business foundation through new product development via menu consulting and improvements to the rice cake cafe interior.
