[Asia Economy Reporter Jeon Jinyoung] Seven Eleven conducted a food sponsorship activity targeting the Navy Rim of the Pacific Exercise Task Force and the Army 6th Infantry Division to support the military personnel protecting the country in honor of June, the Month of Patriots and Veterans.


On the 24th, according to Seven Eleven, they sponsored goods worth 12 million KRW for the Navy Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) exercise, which aims to secure maritime safety in the Pacific and respond jointly to threats. Since the soldiers have to live on warships for extended periods, the sponsored items mainly consisted of easy-to-enjoy foods such as cup soups. Since 2015, Seven Eleven has been regularly sponsoring goods to the Navy's cruising training task force for seven years, with the total support amounting to about 100 million KRW to date.


For the Army 6th Infantry Division, they delivered food products worth about 10 million KRW, including snacks and beverages, along with gratitude and encouragement to help the soldiers endure tough training in hot weather.



Sun Sinjeong, head of social contribution at Seven Eleven, said, "We planned this sponsorship activity to offer some support to the soldiers who are sweating for our country and people," adding, "Since this is a long-standing activity, we will strive to reach more military personnel in the future."
