Lotte Mart Offers Discount on Cherry Tomatoes... "Coexistence with Farmers"

Expansion of Purchase Quantity to 60~70 Tons

Lotte Mart announced on the 14th that it will purchase cherry tomatoes in large quantities and sell them at low prices to help farmers who are recently struggling to clear tomato inventory.

Lotte Mart will sell 1kg of jujube cherry tomatoes for 6,990 won until the 19th. From the 15th to the 16th, tasting events for jujube cherry tomatoes will be held at about 20 stores.

Lotte Mart will temporarily increase the purchase volume of cherry tomatoes from the existing 20 tons to 60-70 tons, and plans to flexibly offer 2kg large packages from the end of this month to early next month, when cherry tomatoes are most abundantly shipped.

A Lotte Mart official said, "We have prepared to purchase large quantities from cherry tomato farmers who are recently facing difficulties due to accumulated inventory, so that customers can enjoy a variety of delicious tomatoes at reasonable prices. We hope that this large-scale purchase will relieve farmers' concerns and lead to an expansion of demand once again."
