GREETINGS

As the Mayor of the Daegu Metropolitan City, it is my great pleasure and honor to introduce to you Daegus small and medium-sized businesses and their products.

Located in the southeastern part of the Korean Peninsula, Daegu is the nations third largest city. Based on sufficient experiences in hosting international sporting events and meetings, Daegu has organized various international events, such as the IAAF World Championships Daegu 2011 and World Energy Conference 2013. In addition, the World Water Forum will take place in 2015.

Daegu also boasts of its convenient and efficient transportation network which includes the KTX high speed train, international airport, highways and roads. Koreas capital, Seoul, is 100 minutes away from Daegu by KTX and four of its major ports are within one hour or so drive.

Daegus major industries are machinery, auto parts, textile, textile machinery and IT. However, you will also find that the city has a lot more to offer when you do business with its many diverse companies.
