Workers' High Sets New Record Operating 3,000 Retail Branches

Workers High Opens the Future of Space Retail: Flagship Surpasses 3,000 Units! Workers High's 'Flagship,' which is innovating the space retail market, has set a new milestone by surpassing 3,000 operational units, integrating micro-stores and vending machines, as of September 2025. This is more than just a number; it shows that Workers High's vision of redefining spatial experiences in our daily lives is becoming a reality. Behind this explosive growth lies the strategy of targeting the office welfare market through 'Flagship Office' and the successful expansion of the vending machine business. In particular, 'Flagship Office,' which was fully launched in the first half of this year, has received great responses from both companies and employees with its product curation service optimized for office environments. Furthermore, the next-generation 'Flagship Vending Machine,' which has innovated beyond the acquisition of existing vending machine businesses to include design, functionality, and product curation, is permeating various spaces such as lodging and commercial facilities, offering new retail experiences. The development of next-generation Flagship equipment and the expansion of operational scale through supply chain expansion were also key drivers of growth. Flagship is a smart kiosk-based unmanned store solution that transforms any space, such as offices, hospitals, commercial facilities, and hotels, into a customer-tailored retail space. It can perfectly implement product configurations that consider the characteristics of each space, as well as convenient payment systems and designs that embody brand identity, flexibly responding to customer demands. This is a key factor in its recognition as a 'solution' that enhances the value of each space, beyond mere sales. It is also why inquiries for its introduction continue to pour in for lifestyle-integrated spaces such as hospitals, schools, and department stores, beyond just lodging and commercial spaces. Based on this growth trend, Workers High aims to surpass 4,000 operational units by the end of the year, an astonishing expansion of 200% compared to the first half. Not stopping there, it plans to pursue data-driven marketing and personalized consumer experience design in conjunction with 'Flagmedia,' a space-based retail media platform. The ambition is to evolve into a truly sustainable space retail platform through qualitative improvement of retail spaces, beyond quantitative growth. A Workers High official emphasized, "The Flagship operational model, which combines equipment optimized for various spaces with delicate product curation, is widely spreading." They added, "Moving forward, we will not only pursue quantitative growth but also enhance the qualitative value of retail spaces, establishing ourselves as a lifestyle platform that provides unique experiences in all spaces." Flagship goes beyond being a simple unmanned store; it opens up new possibilities for spaces and presents the future of smart retail, adding convenience and enjoyment to daily life.
