Gokseong-gun Strengthens Seokgok-myeon Merchants' Capabilities through Alley Economy Recovery Support Project

Merchant Health Walking and Customized Consulting Conducted

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Heo Seon-sik] Gokseong-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Yoo Geun-gi) announced on the 14th that since the 7th, it has been promoting correct walking and customized consulting for merchants in Seokgok-myeon as part of the "Seokgok Handeulhandeul Pioneo Newtro 1973 Project," which was selected last year for the Ministry of the Interior and Safety's Alley Economy Recovery Support Project.

First, the correct walking program is being held twice a week at the Daehwanggang Natural Rest Park in Seokgok until June 22. A professional instructor is invited to conduct one-on-one sessions, walking 5 km along the Daehwang River while providing education and practice on proper posture to restore physical and mental health and boost immunity.

For the customized consulting for merchants, instead of group education, experts visit stores directly to identify management difficulties and propose solutions.

Since the 11th, 17 locations have applied, and each store is visited three times to provide consulting aimed at finding and implementing ways to strengthen competitiveness in overall business operations, storytelling, VMD, menu creation, taxation, and more.

A county official stated, “We hope that through physical fitness improvement and consulting, Seokgok merchants will regain vitality and the commercial district will be revitalized.” He added, “We will continue to do our best to strengthen merchant capabilities and revive the local commercial district through various projects.”
