Coupang has been honored by Fast Company as one of the World’s Most Innovative Companies in 2025!
Though Coupang’s mission started by bringing U.S. goods to South Korea, our role has expanded to driving the sale of more than $4 billion of American goods, including agricultural products, to millions of consumers in Korea, Taiwan and 190 countries around the world. Coupang now offers a broad range of services, including retail, restaurant delivery, video streaming and live entertainment, fintech, luxury and more, and is a Fortune 200 and U.S. Technology company.
As Coupang has grown, innovation has remained at the forefront of decision making. The company’s technology innovations have driven the future of commerce and enabled success for 100,000s of business partners and tens of millions of customers globally. This week, Coupang has been honored by Fast Company as one of the World’s Most Innovative Companies in 2025!
Thousands of Coupang’s world-class engineers in the U.S., Europe, and Asia have come together to optimize how businesses increase sales by reaching customers on the other side of the world.
Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies spotlights businesses that are shaping industry and culture through innovation, setting new standards and achieving milestones in all sectors of the economy. Coupang earned the No. 2 ranking within the Retail category. Coupang’s Fast Company recognition comes just weeks after it was named a Top 100 Global Innovator for 2025 by LexisNexis.
“Our list of the Most Innovative Companies offers both a comprehensive look at innovation today and a playbook for the future,” said Fast Company editor-in-chief Brendan Vaughan. “This year, we recognize companies that are harnessing AI in deep and meaningful ways, brands that are turning customers into superfans by overdelivering for them, and challengers that are introducing bold ideas and vital competition to their industries. At a time when the world is rapidly shifting, these companies are charting the way forward.”
The full list of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies honorees can now be found at fastcompany.com. It will also be available on newsstands beginning March 25.
