Hanjin Group held a ceremony to celebrate its 80th anniversary at Grand Hyatte Seoul on Oct. 23 ahead of the anniversary day Nov. 1, where it unveiled “Group Vision 2045 vision.”
In his commemorative speech, Chmn. Water Cho said, “The history of Hanjin Group, which started with the launch of Hanjin Sangsa (Company) in November 1945, symbolizes ‘Korean people’s march.’”
“We have explored a new logistics path thanks to the founder’s management tenet of ‘contributing to the development of the nation via transportation’ and the late chairmen’s dedication,” he said.
Chmn. Cho said, “We’re proud that the path Hanjin Group has so far walked is the road Korea has been moving toward, and we will establish ourselves as one of the world’s top integrated logistics companies, to be more loved for 100 years or more based on Hanjin Group’s heritage.”
During the anniversary day event, Hanjin Group declared its “Group Vision 2045,” containing new strategies for the future.
The vision “Moving the World toward a Better Future by Guiding Mankind’s Better Life and Sustainable Prosperity via Innovation” connotates its willingness to make a leap forward as a centenary company based on the past 80 years.
Announcing the vision, President Cho Hyun-min of Hanjin Transportation, said, “We will grow into a company loved by the world beyond Korea by inheriting and evolving the management tenet of contributing to the development of the nation via transportation in the future.”
First, Hanjin Group came up with seven strategies to achieve the vision.
They include a leap into an integrated mobility company encompassing the aerospace, future mobility and e-Commerce sectors, spearheading logistics technology innovation, such as super self-driving technology based on AI, and building sustainable space logistics solutions.

Hanjin Group also announced a new corporate identity. The new CI places “H” mark, a symbol of Hanjin Group, its English name “HANJIN Group” and Korean Air’s new CI Taeguk mark side by side.
The new CI expresses a simple and restrained air and unique identity major global companies recently pursue by reinterpreting the current mark.
