Policies for Growth of Food Truck
Seoul
According to the Seoul city council on July 18, the city council discussed ways to invigorate food trucks in the Seoul Metropolitan area by holding a conference session with related departments and food trucks. According to the Seoul Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) released in Seoul, the number of food trucks reported in Seoul totaled 424,000 in late March, accounting for 32 percent of the total. Currently, the number of food trucks sold is 250 days, and the average business period is 144 days after start-up. Thirty-five percent of the total sales were closed in six months, accounting for about 80 percent of the total sales and the lowest among the total buyers. However, the food truck owners are having a hard time due to a lack of food truck operating areas with stable profits. Seoul City has been searching for possible food truck locations since last September, but it has not been able to set up more than half of the stores due to opposition from existing businesses, insufficient flow populations, and difficulties in transportation. Sales at the store are also sluggish. Another problem was the fact that food truck sales are only taking place at events and festivals. In other words, the movie has limits on the creation of regular profits except for the night market and the Han River project. Such poor conditions caused complaints from vendors at the conference. Korean food truck industry is saturated, eventually sharing and experiencing a rift with the traditional market, said an official at the Korea Food Truck Association, which introduces only about 200,000 to 100,000 won per day in Seocho, where food trucks are relatively popular. Many food truck operators are unable to enter the night market, said an official at the Korea Food Truck Cooperative Federation. "We don't have any countermeasures, and we believe that we will be able to sell our cars conveniently," said the youths and the vulnerable. The National Food and Transportation Workers' Union said, "We don't want to participate in the top 10 percent of the market." The official also said, "The official announcement of the official office is officially posted on the homepage," adding, "We are now trying hard to buy a large number of vendors and commissions for paying tuition fees and fees." One food truck operator said, "We're worried about increasing food trucks," adding, "There are plenty of vendors who are going to shut up in droves, and only food truck makers can be called." In response, the Seoul Metropolitan Government announced that it will boost food trucks by securing business sites. The Seoul Metropolitan Government plans to hire 53 new food trucks, including parks, Hangang River, Seoul, and Seoul, which are recommended by food truck operators in 34 districts, to operate 94 trucks. In addition, if the sales sites were judged to be ineligible for sales, they changed their sales sites and allowed them to obtain counseling from the credit guarantee fund of the credit guarantee fund. Moreover, it plans to expand the night sky market by 5 spots (162 trucks) to 8 (252) by the end of next year. Seoul City has set a goal of boosting the number of food trucks to 800 by next year. The Seoul Metropolitan Government will also step up cooperation with local governments to boost food trucks. Festivals that control large festivals or roads, and festivals that support city budgets, are required to set up an area for food trucks. Local governments were also required to induce participation by special grants or projects for cooperation between municipal and provincial governments. said a Seoul Metropolitan Government official said "We need to look at whether there is a conflict between the local authorities and the local government to expand the business force" and also they pronounced that "We need to find ways to promote the coexistence of existing markets." After presiding over the meeting, Seoul Mayor Park Won-soon said, "At least 1,000 trucks should be run in Seoul. We will have three to five jobs per person, and we will conduct a test in Kimpo".
Gyeonggi province
Gyeonggi Province council is promoting food trucks to support the underprivileged and youth start-ups. Food trucks are trucks equipped with trucks to cook and sell simple food. Gyeonggi Province council said it will operate two food trucks in the morning and lunch hours at the parking lot in front of the Suwon Chapter of Suwon National Assembly for two weeks from July 18 to 29. Since the Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Food and Drug Administration has a collective lunch facility, it is impossible to establish food trucks according to the original regulations. The official explained, "The wiretapping facilities are not permitted to operate food trucks, but we decided to test food trucks to expand food trucks, including public institutions, to expand food trucks." The official added, "In particular, if we improve our perception of food trucks and improve our business by improving our business, we will be able to create a very good opportunity for hiring substandard living," adding, "We will generate at least two to three employees per food truck." Gyeonggi province council decided to run the trial to promote the establishment of food trucks by improving consumers' vague distrust of food trucks and the current system, which prevents youths and the underprivileged from starting businesses. Another official explained, "Food trucks are built according to a given standard by the auto repair company approved by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and are subject to regular sanitary checks by relevant authorities, so we have no problems with sanitation measures in the past." First, the company seeks to lift restrictions on the restriction of business zones that prevent food trucks from engaging in food trucks. Food trucks, according to the Food and Hygiene Act, are only permitted to operate in five locations, including urban parks, sports facilities, streams, recreational sites, and tourist attractions to prevent conflicts with existing commercial areas. In order to activate food trucks, the company must expand its sales margin. Accordingly, the government plans to submit a proposal to the government to expand the number of houses including 885 city parks and 3,368 sports facilities, including public facilities. In addition, officials and heads of civic groups will change their perceptions about food trucks. Officials said they still remain negative about food trucks by officials, including the heads of organizations directly responsible for their work, adding that they need to deal with dirty food trucks and keep food truck restaurant operations in the same box office. During the trial period, the company will hold a discussion on how to manage food for the city's executives and employees in the field of pilot operation. The current law also pushes the current law to facilitate the introduction of vulnerable food trucks. Current law requires permission to use and obtain profit from food trucks operating in public places such as parks or sports facilities, where the participation of food trucks by the underprivileged who lack financing is based on the highest bid. The ministry will strongly suggest to the government any areas that need improvement in the system, such as improvement of laws and regulations, that are revealed through the trial run.
