Evolving into a Leading Provider of Eco-Friendly Future Materials

With POSCO Holdings in the lead, POSCO Group is seeking balanced growth across seven core businesses:

construction/infrastructure and agri-bio.

These businesses propel POSCO Group’s evolution into a leading provider of eco-friendly future materials,
