Daewonho is a coastal and offshore fishing business owned by CEO Jung So-hye, located at 66 Gangdongsanha 5-ro, Buk-gu, Ulsan. It primarily catches marine products through pot and gillnet fishing and operates as a small-scale business with 5 employees.

Business Areas

• Coastal and offshore pot fishing: Daewonho conducts fishing activities using pots in coastal and offshore waters. Pot fishing is less affected by sea topography, has a simple gear structure making it easy to operate, consumes less fuel, and has the advantage of high freshness of catches.
• Coastal and offshore gillnet fishing: Coastal and offshore gillnet fishing involves setting nets vertically on the water surface or seabed to catch fish by getting them stuck or entangled in the mesh. It is easy to adjust the size of the fishing gear according to the size of the fishing vessel or the fishing ground environment, and fishermen can easily understand the fishing method.

Products

• Marine products caught by pot fishing: Through pot fishing, various species such as octopus, shrimp, blue crab, conger eel, whelk, and sea snail can be caught. Catches from pot fishing are characterized by minimal damage, maintaining high freshness.
• Marine products caught by gillnet fishing: Gillnet fishing uses various nets depending on the species to catch a variety of marine products such as flounder, mackerel, shrimp, and crab. Fish are caught by getting stuck or entangled in the mesh, and while the catch volume may be very small, the products are of excellent quality.

Special Notes

• Maintaining high freshness of catches: Pot fishing results in less damage or injury to catches compared to nets or hooks, making the products highly marketable. This is one of the factors that makes it recognized as a high-value-added fishery.
• Simple and efficient fishing method: Pot and gillnet fishing gear has a simple structure, making it easy to construct. Compared to other fishing methods, it does not require special fishing equipment or significant fuel consumption, allowing for efficient operations even on small fishing vessels.
