All provinces, cities and counties in the DPRK are actively carrying on projects for revitalizing their local industry factories.

North Hwanghae Province is pushing ahead with the work to make the production lines of the Sariwon Condiments Factory automatic and germ- and dust-free at the final stage.

The goal is to newly establish modern production lines depending on local raw materials and resources like Kimhwa County did.

North Hamgyong Province is consolidating the material and technical foundations of Koryo medicine pharmaceutical factories while increasing the resources of medicinal plants as it is surrounded by many mountains.

The construction of several Koryo medicine pharmaceutical factories planned for this year is at the final stage.

Jagang Province is increasing the production of consumer goods by accelerating the reconstruction and modernization of its local industry factories.

The condiment factory in Usi County doubled productivity by introducing an automatic inoculating instrument and is improving the tastes of soy sauce and bean paste and expanding production while saving much labour and fuel by setting up an active electric boiler and automatic temperature sensor.

The county foodstuff factory has established new formula and biscuit production processes and is revitalizing the production.

Huichon City concentrates on diversifying consumer goods by making effective use of local resources of raw materials.

The paper mill in the city laid the material and technical foundation for increasing the production of consumer goods by dint of recycling and the condiment factory realized the automation of the bean paste forwarding process and is improving the tastes and quality of foodstuffs by introducing such equipment as a soy sauce filter and bottle washing machine.
