CareOne partners with social enterprise Seha& to create jobs for people with disabilities and strengthen ESG efforts

Space-care company CareOne is joining forces with social enterprise Seha& to turn an existing manufacturing relationship into a broader partnership focused on jobs for people with disabilities and social value creation.

CareOne, led by CEO Kim Ho-young, said it signed the agreement with Seha&, a social enterprise under the Dahah social welfare foundation, headed by Choi Jong-in. The two organizations held a signing ceremony on the 28th and agreed to build a cooperative framework supporting sustainable employment and independence for people with disabilities, as well as shared growth with the local community.

The companies had already worked together to produce attractants for fruit-fly traps used at B2B sites. Under the new agreement, that cooperation will expand to include production of key products from Kkaekkomi, CareOne’s consumer-facing clean ritual brand launched this year.

Seha& supports vocational rehabilitation for people with severe disabilities. It is registered as a specialized production facility among sheltered workshops for people with disabilities and produces insect jelly products. The company has built its relationship with CareOne through its manufacturing experience and production capabilities. The partnership will go beyond outsourcing production to include product packaging, storage, shipping and logistics.
