Kkumbi, 'Linkmom Shopping Mall' Opens Store in Yongin

Kkumbee will open a store at the ‘Linkmom Shopping Mall’ in Yongin, which is scheduled for grand opening on Wednesday, June 5.

The large-scale shopping mall specializing in baby products, ‘Linkmom Shopping Mall,’ is set for a pre-opening on Saturday, May 25. Operated by Kkumbee’s affiliate, Ilsang’s Emotion Co., Ltd. (CEO Kim Jeong-ho), the large store offers about 230 childcare product brands.

Visitors can find major stroller brands such as Bugaboo and Egg, as well as car seat products from brands like Polled and Soonsung, along with many well-known domestic and international brands all in one place.

The mall spans approximately 3,000 pyeong across four floors. The first floor is divided into stroller zones, car seat zones, high chair zones, and showroom spaces by category. The second and third floors feature small home appliances, baby furniture, toys and educational materials, as well as spaces for consultations on children’s insurance and postpartum care center contracts.

Notably, the second floor includes a ‘Special Exhibition for Essential Maternity Products,’ which, unlike typical childcare stores, recommends necessary products before and after childbirth to facilitate smooth shopping for consumers. Additionally, the mall has implemented an unmanned store system using RFID wireless recognition technology without requiring significant facility investments.

The Linkmom Shopping Mall includes a 68-pyeong Kkumbee zone, a 55-pyeong Kkumbee showroom, and a 12-pyeong Mothers Choice area, allowing customers to experience products firsthand before making purchase decisions. Products that were previously difficult to try in person, such as noise-reducing mats, wooden baby rooms, high-guard bumper beds, and toddler dining chairs, are displayed.

Moreover, display stands for Organic Ground and Babadito are provided so customers can apply products and check scents before buying.

A Kkumbee representative stated, “This entry into Linkmom Shopping Mall is very meaningful as it expands Kkumbee products, which were concentrated in the online market, into the offline market as well. We expect it will increase customer satisfaction by allowing consumers to compare and experience products in-store before purchasing.”

Meanwhile, Kkumbee currently operates the baby furniture brands ‘Kkumbee’ and ‘Ricoco,’ the organic skincare brand for infants and toddlers ‘Organic Ground,’ the pet brand ‘Pamiya,’ and the lifestyle brand ‘Babadito.’

In addition, by acquiring the exclusive distribution rights for the German baby furniture specialist ‘Goiter,’ with a 140-year tradition, and the domestic online exclusive sales rights for the global coffee brand ‘G7,’ Kkumbee is diversifying its business by entering the distribution market.
