Limited-edition goods and experiential events: Food industry in full swing with baseball marketing

South Korea\'s food industry is ramping up baseball marketing through collaborations with the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) and professional teams. Companies including Nongshim, Lotte Wellfood and Starbucks Korea are rolling out limited-edition products, team-themed packaging and goods, and holding in-stadium events. The push follows strong pro baseball attendance, with the KBO expecting crowds to rise to about 13 million this year. Some collaborations have already sold out in pre-orders and annual releases.
