Taekwang Group has launched a new business initiative by creating the cosmetics brand “SIL.”
On the 13th, Taekwang Group announced the establishment of an independent cosmetics subsidiary, SIL, with the aim of independently developing and launching beauty brands. SIL is a wholly owned subsidiary of Taekwang Industrial. Kim Jin-suk, a new business specialist who previously worked at global consulting firm Kearney and Samsung Electronics, has been appointed as the company’s first CEO.
