In addition, it will prepare and implement reasonable measures for win-win cooperation such as establishing fair trade relationships, creating a stable management environment, and seeking long-term development of the industry.

Partner companies also promised to actively participate in Daesang’s cooperation plans, including improving workers’ working conditions, strengthening capabilities, and innovation efforts to enhance competitiveness. To form a virtuous cycle structure of growth-employment-welfare in the food manufacturing industry through effective win-win cooperation, the Ministry of Employment and Labor and local governments will actively support all necessary matters for the implementation of the agreement.

Lim Jeong-bae, CEO of Daesang, said, “As this is the first time in the food industry to form a win-win cooperation council among four parties including the government and local governments and pledge to lead mutual growth with partner companies, we will strive to spread this cooperative culture throughout the food manufacturing industry through exemplary execution.” He added, “Beyond this agreement, we will continuously practice win-win cooperation with partner companies and work hard to create a virtuous ecosystem of mutual growth.”
