Starbucks Korea to Close All Stores Early for History Training

 


Starbucks Korea will take the unprecedented step of closing all stores early on June 22 to conduct history training for its entire workforce following a botched promotional event that triggered a customer boycott.

Starbucks locations across South Korea will halt operations at 3:00 p.m. local time next Monday for mandatory education on history and social sensitivity, parent company Shinsegae Group said. Chairman Chung Yong-jin and other executives and managers will undergo the same training separately.
