Seongbuk District in Seoul is supporting local sewing factories to establish a unique ‘Made in Seongbuk’ brand, with the aim of revitalizing the local economy and encouraging generational turnover. The Seongbuk Smart Fashion Industry Center is at the heart of this initiative, providing small sewing businesses with support in manufacturing, distribution, and promotion. The center offers free access to high-end devices and professional services, and operates two proprietary clothing brands, ‘URZ’ and ‘S+ Lounge’, which are sold both online and offline. The center also supports youth entrepreneurship education, leading to cases of local youth taking over their parents’ factories and creating their own brands.
