Tainan Agricultural Products Pop Up in Seoul Subway Malls, Offering Pineapples for Pitch-Pot Wins

Tainan's agricultural specialties are making their debut in Seoul's bustling subway shopping districts with a vibrant pop-up event. Organized in collaboration with Korean distributors, the initiative showcases Tainan's premium produce through sales, tastings, and engaging cultural activities. A highlight of the event is the traditional Korean "Tou Hu" (pitch-pot) game, offering participants a chance to win a Tainan pineapple by successfully tossing three arrows into the pot. All attendees receive Tainan dried fruit as a token of appreciation, drawing significant interest from the local populace. Tainan Mayor Huang Wei-cher led the delegation, emphasizing the goal of connecting directly with consumers to promote the excellent quality and unique flavors of Tainan's agricultural products. The event also serves as a platform to highlight Tainan's agricultural industry's strength, from production to processing and branding. Mayor Huang also met with the Seoul Chamber of Commerce, representing thousands of local businesses, to discuss further opportunities for promoting Tainan's produce in Korea and encourage Korean tourism to Tainan. The event aims to deepen understanding of Tainan's agricultural excellence and its rich cultural heritage among Korean consumers.

We specifically chose to hold this sales pop-up event in a popular Seoul commercial district, at a subway station with convenient transportation and heavy foot traffic. We hope to interact directly with consumers and let more Korean friends recognize the excellent quality and delicious characteristics of Tainan's agricultural products.
