[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chunhan] Shinsegae Central City announced on the 25th that Cheongnyeon Coffee Lab is recruiting new young owners. Anyone aged 20 to 39 who is interested in running a cafe can participate, and applications are open until the 29th.


Cheongnyeon Coffee Lab is a representative youth startup support social contribution program started by Shinsegae Central City in May 2019. The final successful candidates receive the store space as well as free interior design and business equipment such as coffee machines. Afterwards, based on the profits earned from operations and the startup support funds provided by Central City, they can prepare to start a business in their desired area.


In the second half of this year, a mentoring class will be held for prospective entrepreneurs preparing to start cafes, composed of former Coffee Lab representatives as mentors. They plan to deliver each mentor’s unique startup know-how and add roasting classes to create a mentoring class exclusive to Cheongnyeon Coffee Lab.



Park Juhyung, CEO of Shinsegae Central City, said, “Despite the impact of COVID-19, we are very proud to see the representatives who passed through Coffee Lab realize their dreams,” and added, “We will continue to support the dreams and hopes of young people and hope many talented individuals apply for the 5th recruitment.”
