Woori Financial Group Joins Ethical Consumption Movement... 100+ Restaurants Receive 100 Million KRW in Advance Payments

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Hyo-jin] Woori Financial Group announced on the 16th that it will prepay a total of 100 million won for meals at about 100 restaurants near its headquarters that are struggling due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

Woori Financial explained that this is part of the recently spreading good consumption movement to revitalize domestic demand through prepayment and pre-purchase. Sohn Tae-seung, Chairman of Woori Financial, said, "Small business owners near the headquarters, such as Namdaemun Market and Myeongdong, are also facing great difficulties due to a sharp decline in sales," urging participation in the good consumption movement through group-wide prepayment of meals.

Woori Financial plans to continue expanding the voluntary prepayment campaign targeting branches nationwide and all group employees, and to carry out various additional good consumption campaigns that provide practical help to revitalize the local economy.
