Convenience stores have simultaneously raised the prices of ice cups.

According to the industry on the 14th, CU, GS25, and 7-Eleven will increase the price of ice cups by 100 won each. Emart24 currently has no plans to raise prices.

7-Eleven's price increase took effect from the 1st, while CU and GS25 will apply the increase from the 15th. The price hike is the same regardless of the product size.

A convenience store industry official said, "We have delayed the timing of the price increase as much as possible, but due to the burden of rising raw material costs, we had no choice but to proceed with the price increase."
