Pyongyang, January 26 (KCNA) -- The Wonsan Leather Shoes Factory in Kangwon Province of the DPRK turns out shoes with the trademark "Maebongsan". It is famous as a model factory taking the lead in the shoe-making industry of the country.

The course of its development is associated with the loving care of the respected General Secretary Kim Jong Un for the people.

He dispatched a powerful construction force for its renovation and solved problems arising in the project, ranging from the design and building operation to the supply of materials.

Thus, it was built into a wonderful footwear factory in a little more than five months since the start of the construction.

He was so pleased with the firm guarantee for increasing the production and improving the quality of the products and stressed the need to produce more quality and attractive leather shoes in line with the fact that the factory turned into a model and standard footwear factory of the country.

And he also urged the factory to steadily strive for the improvement of quality so as to make its "Maebongsan"-trademarked products popular among the people.

The factory won the certification of quality control system by finishing the new process to produce quality shoes to suit the people's tastes and sense of beauty. Its products with peculiar patterns and shapes attracted the attention of people at the 2023 Spring National Footwear Exhibition.

Whenever a national footwear exhibition is held in Pyongyang, many people visit the stand for this factory's products before other stands.
