Baemin to Support Local Economic Revitalization by Participating in September Companion Festival

5,000 Won Pickup Discount in Jeju Island
Pickup Discount Coupons for Special Disaster Zones Affected by Floods

Woowa Brothers, the operator of Baemin, announced on September 1 that it will participate in the September Companion Festival organized by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups. The Companion Festival is a nationwide consumption promotion event aimed at boosting sales for small businesses and stimulating domestic consumption.

During the month-long Companion Festival in September, Baemin plans to run a variety of promotions and enhance customer benefits to help revitalize local neighborhood businesses. To start, Baemin will launch a pickup discount promotion in connection with Jeju, where the opening ceremony of the festival will be held. Until September 7, Baemin will offer a 5,000 won discount coupon for pickup orders, available on a first-come, first-served basis throughout Jeju Island. This initiative is expected to encourage visits and spending in Jeju’s local neighborhoods, thereby invigorating the regional economy.

From September 22 to 30, Baemin will also provide 5,000 won pickup discount coupons on a first-come, first-served basis at more than 30 stores located in special disaster zones that were affected by heavy rainfall this summer. Additionally, customers who write supportive reviews for stores in these special disaster zones will have a chance to win a 10,000 won pickup discount coupon through a lottery event.

Baemin organized these events once recovery from flood damage had reached a certain level. The aim is to support the return to daily life by revitalizing consumption in local markets. Baemin plans to continue fostering ongoing interest in local businesses in the future.

From September 15 to 28, Baemin will also hold a special exhibition featuring outstanding products from the Chungnam region, recommended by the Chungnam branch of the Small Enterprise and Market Service. This initiative is intended to help boost sales for local producers. Featured products include Buyeo cherry tomatoes, Seosan six-clove garlic short rib patties, and Cheongyang goji berry crispy rice snacks, among others.

Kim Junghyun, Head of Value Management at Woowa Brothers, said, "We will strive to help expand sales and promote mutual growth with local small businesses, while providing more benefits and enjoyment to our customers."
