South Korean food and dairy giant Binggrae Co., Ltd. has revealed plans to restructure into two distinct entities by May 2025, following a strategic decision made during a recent board meeting. The move is designed to enhance operational focus and strengthen the company's ability to navigate shifting market dynamics.
Under the new structure:
- Binggrae Holdings will operate as a holding company, focusing on business investments, expanding the company’s global footprint, and managing subsidiaries, including Haitai Ice Cream, acquired in 2020.
- Binggrae will take on the role of an operating company, responsible for the production and sales of dairy products.
The restructuring aims to bolster Binggrae’s market responsiveness and reinforce its growth strategy. According to the company, this initiative will enable each entity to specialize in its respective areas, driving sustainable growth.
Additionally, Binggrae plans to retire 1 million treasury shares, equivalent to approximately 10.25% of its total issued stock, as part of efforts to enhance shareholder value. The proposal will be reviewed in an upcoming board meeting.
This strategic realignment reflects Binggrae's commitment to strengthening its competitive edge and fostering long-term success in the food and dairy sector.
