Doosan

Our Name, Doosan

Doosan—a combined word of “doo (a measuring unit of grains)” and “san (mountain)”—

means “little grains of sand that together make a mountain.”

Our name reflects our belief that a greater achievement can be made when everyone involved unites.

Throughout its 124-year history, Doosan People have lived by our beliefs and philosophy that we can achieve a greater goal when we join forces

The forthcoming stories about Doosan will be filled with Doosan’s dream of contributing to creating a better future for humanity.

Doosan Fulfills Basic Human Needs

Since opening Korea’s first modern store

Doosan Has No Fear of Change

In the year that marked our 100th anniversary,

we implemented advanced processes and

systems and carried out a series of M&A deals

to transform the company successfully into a

global leader in the infrastructure support

business sector.
