Our story began in 1987, when our late founder, Mr. Seo Il-tae, established a small fishing gear factory named “Korea Trading & Industries.,co.ltd” in Saha-gu, Busan. With great passion, he drove the growth of both domestic and international fishing gear and marine equipment industries.

Today, KTI produces not only fishing nets—the core materials of the marine industry—but also a wide range of products supporting the global fisheries sector. To meet the diverse needs of our customers, we remain dedicated to continuous quality improvement and research & development.

In this rapidly changing market environment, we hold fast to our founding spirit: earning trust through both technology and quality. From the very beginning, our philosophy of innovation and excellence has evolved into deep expertise and robust R&D capabilities, becoming the foundation of strong and lasting partnerships worldwide.

Looking ahead, we aim to go beyond manufacturing fishing equipment. Our mission is to deliver optimized solutions tailored to customer needs, grounded in practicality, sustainability, and customer-focused service.

KTI will continue to learn, innovate, and grow together with our valued clients.

Thank you for your unwavering trust and support.

Sincerely,
Seo Ji-young
CEO, KTI Co., Ltd
