On the 16th, Mayor Kim visited 'Korea Derica Fresh' located in Namjeong-ri, Sindun-myeon, toured the site, listened to the difficulties faced by the company, and encouraged company officials. Korea Derica Fresh is a home meal replacement manufacturer established in 2012. It produces triangular kimbap, sandwiches, lunch boxes, and supplies them to about 10,000 GS25 convenience stores in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Gangwon regions.

The company expressed gratitude for the city's recent approval of a small-scale factory expansion and also requested that the city continue to take an interest and provide administrative support until the factory's completion.

Mayor Kim said, "I deeply appreciate the hard work of the companies and workers who are dedicated to product manufacturing 365 days a year without rest," adding, "I hope they continue to grow as a strong partner in revitalizing the local economy."
