In 1960, with a pioneer spirit

AJU's journey began based on the principle of 'leading the way on paths others have not taken', rooted in the 'pioneer spirit (開拓者精神)'.
The founder, Cheongnam (淸南) Moon Tae-sik, once mused, "If we can make utility poles out of concrete in just 5 minutes,
why spend valuable foreign currency and wait for months, even years, to import wooden poles?"
With this visionary mindset, he established 'AJU Corporation' in 1960,
which laid the foundation and drove the momentum for what for what 'AJU' has globally become today.
