According to the city on September 29, this inspection targeted six locations: the main branch, Sangdong branch, and Suseong branch of the Jeongeup Nonghyup Local Food Direct Store; the main branch and Haksan-ro branch of the Jeongeup Wonhyup Local Food Direct Store; and the Jeongeup Forestry Cooperative Local Food Direct Store.


The inspection covered several areas, including whether imported agricultural products and processed goods were being sold, the status of prioritizing the sale of local agricultural products, management of expiration dates, management of zoning and separation of local agricultural products, and whether results of residual pesticide and safety inspections for supplying farms were being posted.
