[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] Genesis BBQ announced on the 9th that it donated 2,500 boxes of BBQ home meal replacements (HMR), including Jamaican whole leg and tenderloin, to local food banks for the year-end.

BBQ delivered a total of 944 boxes and 1,561 boxes respectively to food bank representatives at 17 locations, including Seongnam Food Bank, Ansan Nanum Gwa Gippeum Food Bank, and Gwangju Central Food Bank. The products consisted of home meal replacements such as whole leg barbecue, hot crispy breast, boneless crispy tenderloin, and sweet and spicy (wing, drumstick). The total value of the products delivered so far amounts to approximately 200 million KRW.

The products delivered by BBQ are scheduled to be provided as warm and hearty meals to socially vulnerable groups in each region, including low-income families, elderly living alone, basic livelihood security recipients, single-parent families, social welfare facilities, and free meal centers.

Hong Seongjun, a social worker from Ansan Nanum Gwa Gippeum Food Bank who attended the event, said, “Due to COVID-19, the number of companies donating has decreased, making it a difficult time. Thanks to BBQ’s support, we feel we can have a warm and secure winter. We hope that this kind of donation culture will be established and sustained in the future.”
