Hanjin selected for three consecutive government SME logistics projects

Hanjin has been selected as a service provider for three consecutive government-led logistics support projects aimed at assisting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and small business owners. These initiatives are organized by agencies under the Ministry of SMEs and Startups, including the Korea SMEs and Startups Agency (KOSME), the Korea Small Business Distribution Center, and the Small Enterprise and Market Service (SEMAS).

The support programs cover a wide range of needs, from domestic delivery to international export logistics. For domestic services, Hanjin introduced a ‘pickup delivery’ option through its ‘One-Click PRO’ platform to accommodate small-scale shippers or those handling goods that cannot be stored in traditional fulfillment centers, such as seafood. Selected businesses can receive up to 90% of their logistics costs covered by the government.

For international expansion, Hanjin is utilizing its Global Distribution Center (GDC) at Incheon International Airport to provide reverse direct purchase fulfillment and international express services. This helps SMEs reach overseas markets, such as Japan, where some participating companies have reported significant growth in sales and shipping volumes after utilizing these integrated solutions.
