Samsung Everland has evolved into a leader in Korea’s service industry by expanding its business sectors to resorts, food and beverage, etc.
In December 2013, Samsung Everland acquired the Fashion Business Group of Cheil Industries, the leading player in Korea's fashion industry since its foundation in 1954, and changed its name to Cheil Industries with a focus on designing lifestyle.
In September 2015, Cheil Industries merged Samsung C&T, a leading company in both construction and general trading industries, and changed the name to Samsung C&T. With expanded business sectors ranging from construction, trading to fashion and resort, Samsung C&T has set a new vision to become a 'Global Business Partner' and 'Lifestyle Innovator'.
For your reference, former Samsung C&T Corporation was established in 1938, which laid foundation for the rise of Samsung Group and designated by the Korean government as the nation’s “first general trading company” in 1975 to lead the nation's export drive.
Since the merger with Samsung Construction in 1995, former Samsung C&T has been actively engaged in various global businesses through offices in over 50 countries.
