Japanese fashion brand Uniqlo products bought online can be picked up from 7-Eleven stores starting July across Korea, according to 7-Eleven Wednesday.

The pickup service has been a huge hit after it has been provided through 5,700 7-Eleven stores in Japan since February last year. Singles or working couples won’t have to worry about missing deliveries as they can pick up their package around the clock at corner stores.

The service saves logistics and delivery cost, helping to bring down the selling price. The convenient store as a pickup station also can benefit from increased customers traffic.
