President Lee Heung-gyu stated, “This four-year consecutive selection and highest grade achievement is the result of the efforts of all employees to coexist with the local community and create social value. Going forward, Yangju Urban Corporation will continue to expand social contribution activities based on local networks, practice ESG management, and grow sustainably together with the community.”
