KT&G(CEO: Mr. Min Young-jin) won the grand prize for the manufacturing sector in the ‘Web Award Korea’.
 
The ‘Web Award Korea’ is an event to select the most innovative and excellent websites which were built in the year through objective and fair evaluation by council of jurors consisting of 2,000 internet experts and award a prize to them. The event is held by KIPFA and sponsored by the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning and KISA.
 
The KT&G website(www.ktng.com) was selected as the first position in the manufacturing sector with excellent evaluations in visual design, contents, UI(User Interface), and service in the competitions with total 716 companies around the 68 sectors and 13 divisions.
 
This homepage was rebuilt last August, in order to provide the optimal information in PC as well as mobile device. Considering users’ perspectives and needs, its design was done in simple and unified forms by arranging each menu and contents, and making users see the company information clearly.
 
A person concerned in KT&G said that “monthly users who visit the website increased more than 50% than before its rebuilding, with recognition on its excellence. We will analyze the evaluation report carefully, encourage merits and supplement demerits, in order to extend customers’ convenience.
