Kotabaru (Antaranews Kalsel) - The Kotabaru Cooperatives, Small Business, and Industry Agency will prepare special sales places for local typical products at tourist destinations.


"We made two booths at Siring Laut and Gedambaan Beach so that tourists do not go far to look for Kotabaru's special souvenirs," said the Head of the Kotabaru Cooperative, Small Business, and Industry Agency Zuhairil Anwar here on Sunday.

The program is targeted to be realized in 2019. The goal is to make local specialty products easy to find. During this time the marketing of various handicraft items and the local typical food is considered less available.

"Don't talk about Kotabaru's typical sasirangan, but we are looking for where it doesn't exist," said Zuhairil.

The existence of a special selling place for local typical products is a good opportunity for craftsmen who have been constrained by marketing. Not only that, assistance to increase the quantity and quality of products will also be provided.

"We already have an inventory of the lack of what we need and what is needed, both for improving our products and quality," he added.

There are at least 27 players in the craft industry and locally processed food products that are targeted by this program. They are also asked to form groups in order to support each other in promotion and marketing.
