[Company] 44 Best Companies for Shared Growth, including Samsung Electronics and Hyundai Motor Company

The Shared Growth Commission said 44 companies, including Samsung Electronics and Hyundai Motor, received the highest ratings after evaluating the 2023 Shared Growth Index.

Since the 2011 joint growth index evaluation, 30 companies, including POSCO E&C and CJ CheilJedang, have received the best grade for more than three consecutive years, up two from a year ago.

In particular, six of the best honorary companies, including Samsung Electronics, SK Telecom, Kia, Hyundai Transys, KT, and SK, have maintained the best rating for more than 10 years.

Companies with the best and best grades of shared growth will be given benefits such as exemption from ex officio investigations by the Fair Trade Commission and exemption from investigations on the status of consignment transactions by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups.

In this evaluation, eight companies that did not participate in the FTC agreement implementation evaluation or did not submit a list of partners for the joint committee's sentiment survey were announced as insufficient grades in accordance with the regulations.

"The shared growth index should reflect social issues and domestic and foreign business conditions well," said Lee Dal-gon, chairman of the shared growth committee. "In order to revitalize the domestic market, it is necessary to induce corporate participation by increasing the purchase performance of Onnuri gift certificates."
