Youngone Corporation — OEM driving results, and re-equipping overseas plants

Where it stands now

OEM boom — with orders for premium outdoor apparel rising, reinvesting in equipment and infrastructure at overseas production bases

In 2025 consolidated revenue rose 15.5% to KRW 4.0636 trillion and operating profit rose 63% to KRW 514.4 billion.

In the first half of 2026 the holding company Youngone Holdings posted consolidated revenue of KRW 2.464 trillion (+12.8%) and operating profit of KRW 353.5 billion (+19.8%), citing strong performance in Youngone's OEM division.

Three decisions within a year

Introducing Korean-made knitting machines: in August 2026 the company signed a contract to install 180 circular knitting machines (worth about KRW 10.0 billion) at its production bases in Uzbekistan, India and Kenya over the next two years.
Bangladesh production base: the company said it is expanding a local general hospital to about 500 beds and building a medical college and a textile and fashion college.
Shareholder returns: it raised its 2026 interim dividend and in October resolved to buy back KRW 50.0 billion of its own shares.

Three people it will look for

Overseas production engineering and equipment manager — 180 knitting machines have to be installed and running at the plants in Uzbekistan, India and Kenya within two years
Overseas subsidiary operations and plant-manager-level leader — as plants in Bangladesh and emerging production countries grow, people are needed to lead the local organizations
Global buyer sales and materials development — someone is needed to handle both premium outdoor orders and functional materials

For HR

The company competes with other large apparel OEM vendors for the same people. With the knitting machine rollout already under way on a two-year schedule, overseas equipment and production leaders need to be hired now to avoid falling behind.

For job seekers

Hands-on experience installing equipment or adding lines at an overseas sewing or knitting plant, and OEM sales experience with global outdoor brands, are worth the most right now.
