The Ministry of the Interior and Safety held an open call for new National Disaster Management Logistics Companies in July, and after conducting first and second round evaluations of the logistics companies that applied, selected four companies: CJ Logistics, Lotte Global Logistics, Hanjin, and BGF Logistics.

CJ Logistics met the requirements in areas such as operating smart logistics centers, maintaining a nationwide logistics network, providing comprehensive logistics services, the level of logistics informatization, and the stability of disaster management logistics operations. In particular, the company's experience in operating integrated disaster management resource centers for metropolitan and provincial governments, as well as its cooperation in various disaster response situations, received high marks.

In the event of a disaster, these companies will be responsible for quickly transporting response supplies from suppliers to regional stockpiles, forward bases, and disaster sites. During normal times, they will handle the inbound and outbound logistics and information management of center supplies, as well as transportation to local government stockpiles. In addition, by linking the disaster management resource integrated management system with their own logistics management information systems, they will share logistics information in real time and participate in government-led training to strengthen disaster response capabilities.

Choi Gapju, Head of the Delivery Group at CJ Logistics, stated, "It is crucial that logistics do not come to a halt during disaster situations, as this is essential for protecting the safety and daily lives of the public. We will make preparations in advance so that necessary support can reach the field quickly and reliably, and ensure that disaster logistics work proceeds without disruption through immediate response in times of crisis."
