Busan Port Authority Labor and Management Opened the 5th Branch of the Sharing Refrigerator 'BPA Hope Pantry'.

The BPA Hope Pantry is a project to install sharing refrigerators in areas near the port, supported by the budget from the Public Coexistence Solidarity Fund Foundation (Chairman Lee Byung-hoon), with cooperation between BPA labor and management.

The 5th branch is located inside the Jungang-dong Community Center (Jungang-daero, Jung-gu, Busan), adjacent to Busan North Port and South Port, and is managed and operated by the Jungang-dong Community Center.

BPA provided refrigerators, freezers, display shelves, and food ingredients. The food ingredients were purchased directly from traditional markets within Jung-gu.

The Jungang-dong Community Center designated the users as any residents in need, including vulnerable households in welfare blind spots.

It operates every Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. (excluding the community center’s lunch break from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m.)

Kang Jun-seok, President of BPA, said, “Companies and individuals purchase goods locally and donate them through the BPA Hope Pantry, which then delivers them to neighbors in need, organically connecting the local community. Since the 5th branch is open to all local residents, we will work together with the community center to serve as a catalyst for revitalizing the neighborhood.”
