Industry sources said on May 10 that Lotte Department Store will run a major tumbler event at locations nationwide from May 8 through June 11, featuring roughly 20 participating brands. Analysts point to rising coffee consumption and growing participation in everyday sports such as running and hiking as drivers of the rapid increase in tumbler demand. Sales at major brands like Thermos and Regote rose by about 60% last year.<\/p>\n

The event\u2019s centerpiece is Asia\u2019s first mega Hydro Flask pop-up, running at Jamsil Lotte World Mall from May 9\u201319.
