- DB Inc. (012030.KS) engages primarily in information technology services, international trade, consulting, and related businesses in South Korea and select international markets. The company provides a comprehensive range of IT services including IT outsourcing through systematic methodologies and standardized processes; system integration optimized to client business environments; global business solutions; convergence services; digital transformation initiatives; and cloud services. It also trades chemical products such as synthetic resins including polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and polystyrene/expanded polystyrene (PS/EPS), special resins comprising polyurethane (PU) and polycarbonate (PC), petrochemical downstream products, and other chemicals; as well as iron and steel products including cold-rolled and hot-rolled steel sheets, tin plates, ferro-alloys, and beam products. Additionally, DB Inc. offers human resource services encompassing talent development consulting and online/offline education programs.
Founded in 1977 and headquartered at Dongbu Financial Center, 891-10 Daechi-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea, the company operates within the IT services and materials trading sectors, serving corporate clients across industries such as manufacturing, finance, and electronics primarily in Asia with expanding activities in Europe.
In recent developments, DB Inc. sold its stake in DB Metal Co., Ltd. to Dongbu World Co., Ltd. as part of a KRW 64.9 billion transaction announced in March 2025, involving shares issued by Dongbu World, with completion targeted for July 2025; this follows its earlier divestment of a 34% stake in Dongbu World to DB HiTek Co., Ltd. for KRW 49.4 billion in July 2024. The company, formerly known as Dongbu CNI Co., Ltd. and later Dongbu Inc., rebranded to DB Inc. in October 2017 to align with broader group restructuring efforts within the DB Group, which includes affiliates like DB Insurance and DB HiTek. These strategic asset reallocations support DB Inc.'s focus on core IT competencies amid reported revenue growth to KRW 587.44 billion in fiscal 2024, reflecting a 28.1% year-over-year increase.
