E-Land Group has reorganized its retail operations into two Business Groups (BG): Retail BG and Food BG, to boost responsibility and adapt to changing retail environments. Cha Sung-won becomes CEO of Retail BG, overseeing urban outlets (NC, NewCore, Dong-A, Icheon Outlet) and fashion brands, using his global retail experience to sharpen competitiveness and respond faster to consumer trends. Hwang Sung-yoon is appointed CEO of Food BG, covering hypermarket operations (Kim’s Club, Farm&Food) and the E-Land Eats dining business, aiming to enhance product competitiveness and operational efficiency through retail–food synergies. Each subsidiary, including E-Land Eats, will operate as independent legal entities under a strengthened accountability framework. The move is framed as a structural improvement to counter offline retail challenges and build sustainable strengths.
