The startup activation support fund is available to those aged 19 (born in 2004) to 29 (born in 1994). It can be received when opening a jointly invested new store where GS25 headquarters supports the lease deposit, rent, and facility investment. Considering the minimum startup cost, this results in an investment cost reduction effect of over 54%. GS25 has begun recruiting young prospective store owners, and the first payment is expected to be made next month.

A GS25 official stated, "We expect this support system to serve as a new driving force for youth entrepreneurship," adding, "We will continue to contribute to the creation of startups and jobs for youth, the elderly, and socially vulnerable groups, while strengthening ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) management."
