"Established as a Successful Collaboration Model"

Emart24 announced on the 27th that the convenience store brand 'Coopsket,' created in collaboration with the Korea University Student Cooperative Federation (hereinafter referred to as the University Student Coop), has surpassed 100 stores with the opening of the Kookmin University Student Cooperative Arts College branch.

Since signing a memorandum of understanding (MOU) in December 2020 to innovate campus convenience stores, Emart24 and the University Student Coop have been applying and operating Emart24 products, marketing, and systems through Coopsket. Emart24 also incorporated hybrid store know-how. The system operates with staff during the day and unmanned service during late-night hours, supporting students to conveniently use the convenience store even at night.
