With the sales rate for manufacturing-site plots at the Jeonju Carbon Materials National Industrial Complex surpassing 30%, Jeonju City has stepped up efforts to attract investment from carbon-industry companies in Korea and abroad.

On November 4, Jeonju City took part in the carbon-industry trade show "CARBON KOREA 2026," held at COEX Magok in Seoul, and promoted investment opportunities and business support incentives at the Carbon National Industrial Complex to attract companies.

Sales of manufacturing-site plots at the Jeonju Carbon Materials National Industrial Complex began on October 14 through negotiated contracts. So far, 21 plots have been sold, bringing the sales rate to about 30%. To sustain this momentum, the city is working to build connections with companies in Korea and abroad and identify new investment prospects.

The three-day exhibition, running through November 6, brings together 135 companies and institutions in the carbon industry from Korea and abroad for displays of carbon-material products, technology exchanges and business consultations.

Because carbon materials are lightweight and strong, their use is expanding across a range of industries, including aerospace, automobiles and energy. Attracting production facilities and research and development operations from related companies has therefore emerged as a key task in strengthening the competitiveness of the local industry.

Jeonju City plans to follow up with promising investors identified at the exhibition through further consultations and site visits. It aims to turn these efforts into investment agreements and actual land-sale contracts through tailored outreach that takes into account each company's business area, investment scale and site requirements.

A Jeonju City official said, "We will expand our network of promising companies in the carbon industry and continue our efforts to attract investment in line with each company's needs. We will work to secure tangible investment agreements and boost sales at the Carbon National Industrial Complex."
