The Korea Ready-Mixed Concrete Industry Cooperative Federation sought to explore management strategies to address key issues amid prolonged economic stagnation.
The federation announced that it held the '2026 Jeju Ready-Mixed Concrete Management Innovation Forum' from October 5 to 7 at the Jeju Majeong Glad Hotel, with over 300 representatives from member cooperatives in attendance.
On the first day, experts delivered lectures on public procurement policy directions, key issues in the ready-mixed concrete sector, construction market outlook, and industry responses. The Korea Concrete Testing Institute discussed the current state of the cement and ready-mixed concrete industries through exchanges with Japan and China, as well as trends in domestic low-carbon cement.
On October 6, the forum will focus on future management strategies for small ready-mixed concrete companies in the era of AI transformation.
Meanwhile, the Ready-Mixed Concrete Federation has been holding this management innovation forum annually, marking its 13th edition this year.
Chairman Bae Jo-woong expressed hope that the forum would serve as a starting point for the industry to respond collectively to upcoming changes in public markets, carbon neutrality, and AI, leading to robust growth.
