Emart24 Helps in Difficult Times, "100% Support for Disposal Costs of Lunchboxes and More"

Monthly Membership Fee Reduction During Unavoidable Store Closures Such as Store Disinfection

[Asia Economy Reporter Minyoung Cha] Emart24 announced on the 27th that it will provide support to franchise stores in anticipation of an increase in visits by confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

Emart24 has a policy to immediately identify contacts and implement quarantine measures if a confirmed COVID-19 case is found to have visited a franchise store, and to conduct proactive disinfection at the company's expense.

Emart24 has prepared a support plan to alleviate the burden on franchise stores caused by the two-day closure following disinfection in accordance with the guidelines of the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency.

For stores visited by confirmed cases, Emart24 decided to cover 100% of the disposal costs for fresh food products (lunch boxes, gimbap, rice balls, sandwiches, hamburgers) on the day of disinfection and the following day.

Additionally, the monthly fees corresponding to the two-day closure period after disinfection will be waived.

Furthermore, for small and medium-sized partner companies that may face difficulties due to COVID-19, Emart24 plans to advance payment schedules upon request for early payment of product settlement funds.

Park Yong-il, Executive Director in charge of support at Emart24, said, "As COVID-19 continues to spread and the number of confirmed cases increases, we have prepared support measures for franchise stores and small and medium-sized partner companies facing difficulties."
