Shinwon has launched a synchronised “Global One Team” initiative across its worldwide operations, reaffirming its commitment to strengthening workers’ financial resilience and ensuring long-term economic stability.
Women make up a significant majority of ShinWon’s production workforce, representing nearly 82% of staff across strategic hubs in Indonesia, Vietnam, Guatemala and Nicaragua. Limited digital infrastructure and gaps in financial literacy in certain regions often hinder workers’ ability to convert wages into sustainable savings or long-term assets.

To address these challenges, ShinWon has institutionalised programmes designed to strengthen financial capabilities. This year’s campaign theme, “Flowers are symbolic, but economic empowerment matters more,” reflects the company’s philosophy that financial independence is a foundational element of a sustainable and equitable workplace.
In partnership with RISE (Reimagining Industry to Support Equality), the apparel manufacturer has rolled out financial health programmes covering budgeting, debt management, and navigating digital payment systems.
Complementing these efforts is Project STITCH (Savings Through Inclusion, Trust, and Collective Hope), featuring a savings-matching scheme that incentivises long-term asset building, including a 2% company match on employee savings deposits.
ShinWon also provides training for workers with limited access to digital financial services, supporting digital wallet setup and mobile finance usage.

By GlobalData“By making women’s well-being and sustainability a key priority at every level of our global operations, we aim to further strengthen our role as a responsible corporate partner,” said Shinwon CEO JJ Park.
The company’s efforts have gained recognition in global policy forums. Last year, ShinWon presented its approach at a UNSGSA (UN Secretary-General’s Special Advocate for Inclusive Finance for Development) roundtable chaired by Queen Máxima of the Netherlands, highlighting how financial capability can be integrated into ESG and human rights due diligence in supply chains.
At its headquarters and overseas production facilities, ShinWon hosts events and educational sessions to promote worker well-being and capability development. These activities aim to strengthen solidarity across its global manufacturing network and reinforce organisational resilience amid geopolitical and economic uncertainties.
Last year, ShinWon shared plans to extend its self-developed RFID Tunnel System to all overseas subsidiaries by the first quarter of 2026. The technology uses AI to recognise packaging information and cross-check tag data in real time, generating packing lists, and helping to reduce errors in packaging.
