Philip Morris International (PMI) Korea announced that it will print advertisements for at-risk family support on the packaging of its flagship products, including TEREA and Marlboro cigarettes, according to an N.News report on 28 October. This initiative will be gradually implemented in convenience stores nationwide.
The aim of the campaign is to inform families in financial difficulty that they can contact the Health and Welfare Consultation Centre (129) or their local government office for comprehensive counselling, emergency welfare support and assistance with essential goods. From January next year, the company plans to apply this message to all 50 of its products.
This is one of the outcomes of the 'Identifying and Supporting Families at Risk' agreement that PMI signed with the Ministry of the Interior in July. The slogan will be applied to four products, including the exclusive IQOS Iluma Pod, TEREA Purple Wave, TEREA Blue and Marlboro Gold and Marlboro Red.
The South Korean PMI representative said: "It is very meaningful to be able to use our products to eliminate welfare blind spots and raise society's awareness of families in crisis. As a member of corporate citizenship, we will strive to focus on and contribute to those in need".
