SEOUL, Nov. 28 (Korea Bizwire) — Starbucks Coffee Korea said it held a special event at one of its stores in Incheon’s Yeonsu District, inviting members of the 2022 Korean Series champions SSG Landers.
Sixteen players from the Incheon-based pro baseball club worked as baristas for a day, offering coffee and snacks to 320 fans who were invited to the store.
Starbucks Coffee Korea held a photo and autograph signing event, giving out t-shirts, tumblers and free drink coupons to fans.
The local unit of the U.S. coffee giant and SSG Landers donated all profits coming from the ticket sales and other income from the store that day to a fund supporting youth baseball.
Starbucks Coffee Korea is operated by South Korean retail giant Shinsegae Group, which also owns SSG Landers.
