Kim Dongyeon: "Measures Taken to Allow Second Consumption Coupons at Local Cooperatives"

Gyeonggi Province Governor Dongyeon Kim announced that the province has taken the lead in allowing the second round of livelihood recovery consumption coupons, which will be distributed on September 22, to be used at local consumer cooperative stores.

On September 17, in a post uploaded to his social networking service (SNS), Governor Kim stated, "The livelihood recovery consumption coupons are really great when you use them..." and added, "Weren't you inconvenienced because you couldn't use them at cooperatives selling eco-friendly agricultural products?"

He went on to say, "By focusing on sales, we fell short in reflecting public values," and continued, "In line with the government's measures that consider not only revitalizing the local economy but also strengthening the local community, Gyeonggi Province acted swiftly to resolve this issue."

He also added, "The market for eco-friendly agricultural products has now expanded," and suggested, "With Chuseok approaching, why not use the consumption coupons you receive again to fill your holiday table with healthy food?"

Meanwhile, the government has decided that, starting from the second round of livelihood recovery consumption coupon distribution on September 22, stores of local consumer cooperatives with annual sales exceeding 3 billion won will be added as eligible locations, and registration as local gift certificate merchants will also be permitted.
