Seoul: Business-to-business (B2B) operations accounted for more than two-thirds of LG Group's total revenue in 2025, a regulatory filing showed Wednesday, as the conglomerate pushes to build a stable and high-margin business structure.

According to Yonhap News Agency, LG Group's major affiliates, including LG Electronics Inc., LG Display Co., and LG Energy Solution Ltd., saw their B2B-related sales reach 127.7 trillion won (US$88.6 billion) in 2025, accounting for 67 percent of the conglomerate's total revenue. The figure compares with that of 2021, when the B2B segment accounted for 63 percent of the group's total revenue.

The latest trend came as LG affiliates with traditionally strong business-to-consumer (B2C) portfolios, such as LG Electronics and LG Uplus Corp., a mobile carrier arm, continued efforts to expand their presence in the B2B sector. For flagship LG Electronics alone, the B2B segment accounted for 36 percent of its annual sales in 2025, up sharply from 27 percent in 2021, with the home appliance giant seeking to raise the ratio to 45 percent by 2030.

LG Group Chairman Koo Kwang-mo has also been making efforts to streamline non-core businesses while focusing on expanding competitiveness in future growth engines such as the artificial intelligence (AI) and battery sectors. "B2B business is less affected by external environments, and we can anticipate stable sales and profits once it gains traction," an industry official said. "LG Group is promptly improving its business portfolio based on the distinctive technology and service capabilities of its representative affiliates," the official added.
