HD Hyundai chiefs, including Chairman Kwon Oh-gap and Vice Chairman Chung Ki-sun, visited the Changwon plant of HD Hyundai Marine Engine in South Gyeongsang to encourage their new employees on Tuesday.
Four chiefs — Kwon, Chung, HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering (HD KSOE) CEO Kim Sung-joon and HD Hyundai Heavy Industries CEO Lee Sang-kyun — toured the key production sites such as engine assembly and testing stations.
“We sincerely welcome you [the employees] as part of the HD Hyundai family,” Kwon said. “We will spare no effort to support HD Hyundai Marine Engine to become a key player in the global ship engine market through [our] top-notch research & development capabilities."
Kwon and Chung also held a separate question and answer session with the 100 new employees to share HD Hyundai’s vision and key business portfolios.
HD Hyundai Marine Engine, formerly known as STX Heavy Industries, is a marine engine and parts manufacturer in which HD KSOE holds a controlling stake. With the acquisition completed in July, HD Hyundai secured a production portfolio in manufacturing engines for large ships, small- to medium-sized ships and power generation from its three affiliates, HD Hyundai Heavy Industries, HD Hyundai Marine Engine and HD Hyundai Engine.
