[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Hyundai Department Store announced on the 31st that it will operate more than 1,700 refrigerated and frozen delivery vehicles, an increase of over 15% compared to last Chuseok, ahead of the Chuseok holiday gift set deliveries. This is the largest scale among holiday delivery vehicle fleets.

In preparation for the Chuseok holiday period, Hyundai Department Store plans to increase its workforce by 10% compared to the previous year, hiring about 4,000 part-time workers at logistics centers. These part-time workers will be responsible for gift purchase reception, consultation support, and delivery tasks.

From the 2nd to the 7th of next month, Hyundai Department Store will also operate a nighttime delivery service for fresh food items such as meat and dried yellow corvina gift sets. This specialized service is designed for customers who cannot receive food during the day due to being away from home or who prefer delivery during the cooler evening hours.

The Chuseok gift set delivery service is free for most regions nationwide, excluding some island and mountainous areas, when purchasing over 50,000 KRW. Customers purchasing less than 50,000 KRW can use the service for a fee of 5,000 KRW.

A Hyundai Department Store official said, “Considering the higher temperatures compared to previous years ahead of the early holiday, we have secured refrigerated and frozen delivery vehicles three months in advance.”
