BGF Co. said on the 14th that it carried out a 2026 organizational reshuffle and regular personnel appointments.
A BGF Co. official said, "To prepare for internal and external uncertainties, we maintained a stable organizational operating system while focusing on boosting business competitiveness and responsiveness to change so we can lay the groundwork for sustainable growth."

The holding company BGF created a planning and global control organization. It reorganized into a control-and-responsibility system, efficiently adjusting each role with the goal of expanding the group's presence in global markets and strengthening business competitiveness.
