The Korea Institute for Animal Products Quality Evaluation (KAPE) announced on May 13 that it will be recruiting participants for the "2025 First Half Low Carbon Certified Livestock Product Distribution and Sales Support Program" until May 26. The program targets companies that have a track record of processing or distributing low carbon certified livestock products and will provide support such as packaging materials. The initiative aims to increase participation among distributors and help consumers clearly identify low carbon certified livestock products.

Eligible applicants are distribution and sales companies that have distributed low carbon certified livestock products to places such as school meal services and on- or offline stores, and that have facilities or management systems in place to process low carbon certified livestock products separately from regular livestock products. KAPE plans to provide selected companies with milk-specific containers (carton packs) and livestock product packaging printed with the low carbon certification mark.

Park Byunghong, President of KAPE, stated, "We hope that this support program will encourage more distributors and retailers to participate in the low carbon certification system," adding, "KAPE will actively support value-driven consumption by consumers through various efforts to promote the low carbon certification system."
