Seoul, South Korea – [November 5, 2024] — EC21, a leading online B2B marketplace with a strong global presence, has announced a significant policy update aimed at enhancing platform security and ensuring safe, lawful transactions for its users. After 24 years of dedicated service, EC21 has taken proactive measures to address recent reports of misuse involving illegal transactions. To maintain a safe marketplace for its members, EC21 has removed specific product categories and is enforcing stricter regulations on certain item listings.

EC21 has removed categories such as drugs, herbal medicine, pharmaceutical chemicals, and other items that raise regulatory and safety concerns. Furthermore, EC21 has provided clear examples of policy violations, including the listing of prescription drugs, psychotropic substances, items that infringe on intellectual property rights, and products that require stringent medical or legal oversight. These changes are designed to uphold EC21's commitment to safe and compliant business practices.

“We sincerely appreciate our members' continued support and are dedicated to preserving the integrity of our platform,” stated the EC21 IT Team. “These updates demonstrate our commitment to offering a secure and reliable marketplace where businesses can connect and thrive with confidence."

EC21 encourages its members and users to review the complete Product Listing Policy on the company’s official website at [EC21 Product Listing Policy]. This policy outlines detailed guidelines and will help ensure full compliance with platform standards.

Given the increasing need for security and regulation, it is anticipated that other online marketplaces will also adopt similar measures to provide safer platforms for their users.
