Since 1995, CJ has been recognized and beloved by offering new lifestyles to consumers through a consolidated future-growth driven portfolio consisting of food, bio, culture, logistics, and retail. CJ challenged global markets and continued a legacy of dynamic growth. As a K-culture leader, CJ continues to strive toward becoming a ‘global No. 1 lifestyle company.’ To this end, our focus is ‘future and talent.’ We are concentrating on realizing growth through futuristic innovation that is driven by outstanding trend-leading, technology, and marketing competencies while transforming the corporate culture for top talents leading these efforts.

To accelerate growth through futuristic innovation, CJ will boldly and actively expand our global business operations and extend our reach into new fields. We will also pursue innovative M&As and continue to discover and develop new growth drivers. Moreover, heavy investments will be made in AI, big data, and other future-oriented innovative technologies to secure outstanding competencies that competitors cannot match.

The key to such goals is securing exceptionally talented people. Our people, CJ’s top talents, continue development by gaining equal opportunities through fair competition and by receiving exceptional recognitions for stellar performances. Anyone can become a leader, regardless of age, years of experience, or position, as long as they display a portrait of topnotch competencies and a strong will. We promote a culture that is boundless and welcomes challenges. Our people can freely practice “self-directed” work that is not bounded by time and space. Each employee has autonomy to refresh accordingly and challenge themselves in different business and position opportunities as much as they desire. By cultivating such an innovative corporate culture, we will design CJ so that the very top talents want to join, work, and share growth with us.

We desire to take it a step further.
