View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] GS Retail announced on the 19th that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the online fashion store Musinsa, focusing on exclusive integration of payment systems, sales of Musinsa's own brand fashion products, and marketing collaboration utilizing each other's platforms.
The two companies plan to complete the establishment of a payment system within the first half of this year that allows customers to purchase Musinsa Store's fashion products exclusively through cash payments at GS25 convenience stores. It is expected that consumers such as foreigners and minors, who do not have credit cards or are not familiar with online payments, will find it more convenient to use Musinsa Store.
Starting from the second half of this year, Musinsa's own brand, Musinsa Standard products, will also be sold on GS Retail's major retail platforms. GS Retail will select GS25 and Lalavla stores in suitable commercial areas to set up exclusive Musinsa displays and prioritize basic fashion items such as T-shirts, drawers, masks, and lip balms.
Additionally, GS Retail plans to expand synergy between its customer-facing logistics services?such as half-price delivery, Box25 (parcel storage service), and Our Neighborhood Delivery?operated through more than 15,000 offline platforms, and Musinsa's 8.4 million online members by pursuing new business cooperation and differentiated marketing activities.
