Stasher, the innovative luggage storage startup, has joined forces with GS25, the leading convenience store chain in South Korea to offer convenient luggage storage services across popular tourist destinations (and the chain is also known for its iconic appearances in K-Dramas like Squid Game). This collaboration marks a significant expansion for Stasher in Asia, offering convenient and secure luggage storage options for both international travelers and locals across key tourist hotspots in South Korea.
With the increasing popularity of Korean culture, especially post-pandemic, the demand for seamless travel experiences has grown. This partnership taps into that trend by integrating Stasher’s storage services within GS25’s strategically located branches in Seoul, Suwon, and Jeju, all being areas frequented by tourists. This partnership includes the futuristic Ground Blue 49 store in Insa-dong, Seoul, known for its blend of advanced retail technology and traditional Korean cultural experiences.
Ground Blue 49, located in the Hi Insa-dong complex, represents a new era of convenience stores, featuring high-tech experiences like robotic pizza and latte art, alongside a K-food zone that introduces foreign visitors to popular Korean snacks. The store is designed to attract both international tourists and trend-savvy locals, making it a new landmark in Seoul.
Stasher’s luggage storage services will be available at multiple GS25 locations, including Ground Blue 49, allowing travelers to explore freely without the burden of their bags. This collaboration aims to enhance the convenience of travel in Korea while offering unique cultural experiences.
