Dongwon Group announced that all its listed affiliates, including Dongwon Industries and Dongwon Systems, received an overall A grade in the 2025 ESG evaluation by the Korea Corporate Governance Service (KCGS). Dongwon Industries earned A in Environment and A+ in Social, and improved its Governance to B+ after better disclosing shareholder voting options and board activities; it also consolidated Dongwon F&B as a wholly owned subsidiary and paid interim dividends to boost shareholder value. The group reduced carbon emissions by installing high-efficiency HVAC systems at major sites and secured MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) certification for certain tuna fisheries (MSC certification). Dongwon supports talent development through the Korea Maritime Foundation and recruits Indonesian students for maritime training. Dongwon Systems has improved one grade each year since 2022 to reach A, developing recyclable PE-based “Uni-Material” packaging and strengthening supply-chain sustainability and partner support. The group says it will continue to pursue sustainable, society-oriented ESG management.
