The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy (MOTIE) of the Republic of Korea announced today that the Korean government held the third Supply Chain Stabilization Committee meeting today in Seoul and finalized the “First Supply Chain Stabilization Basic Plan (2025–2027).”

The First Supply Chain Stabilization Basic Plan (“Basic Plan”) was established based on the Supply Chain Stabilization Act (“Stabilization Act”) (enforced June 27, 2024), under which four major policy directions and 10 policy tasks will be pushed with an aim to reduce Korea’s economic security items’ dependence on certain countries to 50 percent or below by 2030.

In his opening message, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy and Finance Choi Sang-mok stated that even in the midst of escalating global supply chain uncertainties, the Government has already laid down a legal foundation through the enforcement of the Stabilization Act and launching of a supply chain committee, and with today’s establishment of the Basic Plan, Korea has completed setting up its response system against the tide of global supply chain risks.

By 2027, the Government plans to pour over KRW 55 trillion into expanding domestic production, diversifying imports, advancing public stockpiling, and strengthening and protecting key technologies. Moreover, it will make special effort next year to leverage all possible means even amid difficult internal and external conditions to prepare against unexpected supply chain risks.
