Lotte Group has been actively promoting shared growth with its partner companies through a series of practical measures. Since 2013, the group has been making early payments to partner companies ahead of major holidays, easing their financial burden by providing funds for expenses such as employee bonuses and raw material payments.
Last year, Lotte paid 949.5 billion won ($701 million) to over 12,000 partner companies, eight days earlier than scheduled, with 27 Lotte companies participating in the program. Additionally, Lotte operates a 1 trillion won Shared Growth Fund to help reduce the interest burden on loans for partner firms and has introduced various programs to support their sustainable growth.
