SEOUL--(Korea Newswire)--The global ESG consulting firm, ECONINE, has received the highest rating, the Platinum medal, in the 2023 sustainability assessment from EcoVadis, the world’s most influential and trusted sustainability rating agency.

The evaluation grades are divided into Bronze (top 50%), Silver (top 25%), Gold (top 5%), and Platinum (top 1%). ECONINE has achieved the ‘Platinum Medal,’ placing it in the top 1%.

ECONINE will continue to create a sustainable management advisory service that reflects our experience and achievements in promoting sustainable management as a practicing company in the ESG field.”

Since achieving the Gold Medal in 2022, ECONINE has consistently worked towards social responsibility and sustainable management.
