The Gyeonggi-do Agricultural and Marine Products Promotion Agency is recruiting farms (business entities) to participate in the 'Gyeonggi-do Local Food Direct Market' starting from the 4th.

The Gyeonggi-do Local Food Direct Market was established in May 2022 on the first floor of the Gyeonggi-do Eco-friendly Distribution Center. Over 100 farms and G-Mark certified business entities participate, offering more than 1,150 items.

The recruitment targets farms located in Gyeonggi-do, rural convergence industry and Gyeonggi-do Excellent Agricultural Products (G-Mark) certified business entities, and operators of local food direct markets within the province.

Selected farms and quantities by item will be considered to sell a variety of agricultural, marine, and livestock products such as grains, fresh vegetables, fruits, and processed livestock products.

The Promotion Agency discussed ways to strengthen the competitiveness of the local food direct market through a meeting with farms and tenant business entities in the Gwangju area, and as a result, additional promotional events such as tenant commemoration discount events, buy one get one free events, and Market Gyeonggi online events will be held together with the tenant farms (business entities).

Farms (business entities) wishing to participate can apply via email (sprinter08@gafi.or.kr). For more details, please refer to the Promotion Agency's website.

Choi Chang-su, Director of the Gyeonggi-do Agricultural and Marine Products Promotion Agency, stated, "Through this recruitment, we will more stably secure sales channels for small-scale farms and returnees to farming, and contribute to creating a healthy dietary environment for residents by smoothly supplying safe and high-quality agricultural and marine products to the residents."
