As a result, he transformed Serveone from a conventional procurement agency model into "Asia's No. 1 procurement solutions company."

According to Cleantopia, "CEO Kim's background is well aligned with Cleantopia's current situation, which requires simultaneous targeting of both the nationwide B2C franchise network and the B2B laundry market."

In his inaugural address, CEO Kim stated, "It is an honor to take on a new challenge at Cleantopia, which has led the growth of Korea's laundry industry. Based on our solid business foundation, I will develop Cleantopia into a comprehensive lifestyle service platform that goes beyond laundry services and enables sustainable growth."
