The three regions recently succeeded in a joint export shipment to Brisbane, Australia, creating a new breakthrough in overseas market development for local farmers and small business owners.

This project involved the Yeongwol Industry Promotion Agency (Director Eom Gwangyeol), the Pyeongchang Food Integrated Support Center (Chairman Lim Seongwon), and the Jeongseon Cooperative 'Gachi' (Chairman Son Heeryun).

The three organizations have established a joint sales collaboration network to expand distribution and sales for local farmers, small business owners, and agri-food manufacturers. This export marks their first substantial achievement.

Jeon Hongseon, Director of Strategic Industries, stated, "Being able to promote our region's excellent products to the global market is the result of interregional cooperation," adding, "We will continue to contribute to increasing profits and strengthening competitiveness for local farmers and businesses."

In particular, the three counties are planning various joint marketing events in Seoul, raising expectations for even greater achievements in the future.

This case of cooperation is drawing attention as a meaningful achievement in which regions facing the threat of population extinction have sought sustainable local economic revitalization through solidarity and mutual growth.
