ABKO Holds Completion Ceremony for Gimpo One Factory, Secures Integrated Production and Logistics Hub

ABKO, a company specializing in Internet of Things (IoT) charging lockers and gaming gear, announced on May 12 that it held a completion ceremony for its newly established manufacturing plant and logistics center, Gimpo One Factory, located in Yangchon-eup, Gimpo.

The ceremony was attended by key figures including ABKO CEO Oh Gwanggeun, as well as representatives from SK Networks Service, KT, LG HelloVision, Compuzone, and Connect Wave.

With Gimpo One Factory, which integrates both the manufacturing plant and logistics center, ABKO has built the infrastructure to independently manage the entire process from production to shipment. The new facility, constructed on a site of approximately 7,000 pyeong with a building area of about 5,000 pyeong, consists of an IoT charging locker production wing, a gaming gear logistics warehouse, and an integrated after-sales service (AS) center. The total investment, including land acquisition costs, amounted to 37 billion KRW.

In particular, the new factory has enhanced production efficiency and strengthened both supply speed and after-sales responsiveness by establishing assembly production lines. The company is also boosting its competitiveness by expanding into new businesses such as public procurement and artificial intelligence (AI) server distribution, in addition to its existing domestic market focus on gaming gear.

An ABKO representative stated, "Gimpo One Factory is a strategic hub that can simultaneously enhance mass production capacity and supply efficiency," and added, "We will continue to build comprehensive manufacturing competitiveness by expanding high value-added products, linking new businesses, and strengthening our export base."

Meanwhile, ABKO recorded an operating profit of 4.8 billion KRW and a net profit of 4.7 billion KRW last year, marking increases of 2.2 times and 2.6 times, respectively, compared to the previous year. The Pad Bank supply business, centered on projects from education offices in Seoul and across the country, has shown annual growth, and exports to overseas markets such as Southeast Asia and Europe are also in full swing.
