[Asia Economy Reporter Yuri Kim] Emart announced that it will hold a food event from the 27th to the 2nd of next month to celebrate the non-face-to-face Lunar New Year holiday.


Emart said it prepared this event anticipating an increase in demand for home-cooked food during the up to 5-day holiday period.


They are offering 'U.S. LA-style ribs' and 'seasoned LA ribs' at promotional prices. According to the Agricultural Products Distribution Information (KAMIS), the retail price of frozen U.S. ribs was 3,544 KRW per 100g on the 25th, which is about 42% higher than a year ago. Emart said it stocked up in advance ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday and prepared 120 tons, the largest volume of the year.


Ribs, rib meat, and shank cuts (U.S. and Australian) suitable for braising, as well as Korean beef soup cuts and bulgogi, are offered at a 20% discount when Shinsegae Points are accumulated. 'Chuck eye roll shabu-shabu with broth and sauce' and 'stir-fried beef brisket with sauce' are sold at a 30% discount each when Shinsegae Points are accumulated. 'Whole family cleaned freshwater eel' is available at a 20% discount with Shinsegae Points accumulation, supported by the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries. Eel has established itself as a special home meal for revitalization, and sales within Emart more than doubled in 2021.


Additionally, domestic shrimp is offered at a 40% discount, and representative home meal seafood such as live abalone, cleaned fresh mackerel, cleaned pollock, cleaned squid, and fresh webfoot octopus can be purchased at up to 50% discount with Shinsegae Points accumulation as part of a seafood sales promotion event in cooperation with the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries.


In the fruit section, to celebrate January when citrus fruits become delicious, representative varieties 'Cheonhyehyang' and 'Redhyang' are discounted by 2,000 KRW with Shinsegae Points accumulation. 'Shine Muscat' is also prepared at promotional prices. The 'Family Assorted Sushi Set,' which includes various sushi such as fresh salmon, fresh flatfish, gravlax salmon, octopus, shrimp, and clams, is offered with a 3,000 KRW discount when Shinsegae Points are accumulated.


'Peacock popular meal kits 5 types (Songtan-style Budae Jjigae, stir-fried beef brisket with bean sprouts, Mala Xiang Guo, Log Cabin Dakgalbi, spicy sundae stir-fry)' are also 30% off when purchasing two or more.



During the event period, if you make a single purchase of 300,000 KRW or more at Emart, you will earn 10,000 'e-money' points, and you can participate from the 27th on the Emart application (app) event page.
