UNID Global Corporation

UNID Global Corporation

UNID Global Corporation was established in 1994 by Wha-Young Lee, who concurrently serves as CEO and Chairperson of UNID Company Ltd, the chemicals-focused parent entity. The firm functions as a general trading company and corporate investor for the Lee family's industrial wealth, with family members Lee Hee-hyeon (Vice President) and Lee Ji-hyeon (Director of OCI Museum of Art) holding operational and stewardship roles across the broader group. The firm's deployment spans three distinct verticals: chemical raw material supply, precious-metals collaboration, and direct commercial real estate. Its trading network extends across China, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and the Americas, sourcing and distributing specialized chemical inputs. In Indonesia, UNID Global partners with PT J Resources Asia Pasifik Tbk on gold mining projects, tying trade infrastructure to upstream resource extraction. The firm's property portfolio includes the Ferrum Tower headquarters in Seoul, an office at One Lodha Place in Mumbai, a unit in Ho Chi Minh City's Sun Wah Tower, and a floor in Manila's Pacific Center Building — all held directly. The Lee family controls complementary cultural and educational vehicles. The Songam Cultural Foundation and Songdo Academy extend the group's footprint into philanthropy and private education, while the OCI Museum of Art in Seoul, directed by Lee Ji-hyeon, houses a significant art collection. Professional affiliations include associate membership in the Solvent Extractors' Association of India, reflecting the firm's active role in Asian chemical-input trade policy, and participation in Turkish Exporters Assembly trade summits. Recent operational activity has not been publicly disclosed. UNID Global's structure as a general trading company with direct operating partnerships in mining and a self-managed real estate portfolio distinguishes it from family offices that are purely financial allocators. The firm embeds investment activity within an active trade-and-operating business — a model that ties capital deployment directly to supply-chain relationships across developing and developed markets.
