In addition to win-win cooperation with partner companies, social contribution activities linked with local residents were also carried out. Taekwang Industrial’s Ulsan plant, a textile and petrochemical affiliate, recently participated in ‘Happy Companionship, Flying Together in the Sky,’ supported by 21 companies under the Ulsan City Social Contribution Agreement. Volunteers from various companies invited people with physical, visual, and intellectual disabilities to Jeju Island to assist them in experiencing new activities. Taekwang Industrial is providing financial support as a social contribution agreement company of Ulsan City.

Cinecube, the representative brand of art movie theaters operated by Taekwang Group, is offering discount benefits to residents and university students of Jongno-gu, Seoul, where Cinecube is located, from the 6th of this month until the end of the year. Residents of Jongno-gu, workers in Jongno-gu, and university students can watch movies at a discounted price of 8,000 KRW by presenting their ID cards, employee IDs, or student IDs at the ticket office during this period.

Infrastructure and leisure affiliate TCIS is conducting the ‘Love Connecting Phone’ program with the Comprehensive Support Center for the Elderly Living Alone. This activity is a volunteer service that checks on the safety and well-being of elderly people living alone and provides companionship through phone calls. Since 2019, TCIS has been engaged in social contribution activities where elderly people living alone are matched one-on-one with call center employees who make welfare calls at least twice a week.

A Taekwang Group official said, “We will continue to strive for mutual growth and win-win cooperation with partner companies and strengthen communication with local residents,” adding, “We will continuously consider new ways of social contribution activities as part of strengthening ESG management at the group level.”
