Daeseon Brewery announced on the 1st that CEO Jo Woo-hyun received a plaque of appreciation from Dongnae-gu at the Busan Dongnae Cultural Center.
At the presentation ceremony, Choi Hong-seong, General Manager of Daeseon Brewery, attended and received the plaque of appreciation from Kim Woo-ryong, Mayor of Dongnae District Office.
Dongnae-gu stated that Daeseon Brewery was awarded the plaque of appreciation for its significant contribution to overcoming COVID-19 and protecting the health of residents by actively participating in preventing and controlling community infection spread.
In March, when an emergency was declared due to the spread of COVID-19, Dongnae-gu used about 20 tons of disinfectant alcohol donated by Daeseon Brewery for disinfection at public facilities and vulnerable infection areas. Large-scale spraying was conducted using water trucks in wide areas such as arterial roads and Oncheoncheon Stream.
Additionally, Daeseon Brewery employees helped Sajik 1-dong in Dongnae-gu, which was struggling with labor shortages, by disinfecting multi-use facilities such as Sajik Station, Asiad-daero, bus stops, Giants Park, and churches.
Prior to this, Daeseon Brewery received plaques of appreciation for contributions to COVID-19 prevention from Busan Nambu Police Station in April, and from Nam-gu Office, Yeonje-gu Office, and Geumjeong-gu Office in May and June.
CEO Jo Woo-hyun of Daeseon Brewery said, “I am grateful to receive consecutive plaques of appreciation for activities undertaken with a sense of responsibility as a local company,” and added, “We will continue to strive to overcome the crisis together with the local community.”
