Kurly achieved its first operating profit in company history last year.
The online grocery platform announced Wednesday that preliminary consolidated revenue for 2025 reached 2.37 trillion won, up 7.8% from the previous year. Annual operating profit came in at 13.1 billion won, marking a turnaround from losses. Gross merchandise value (GMV) totaled 3.53 trillion won, a 13.5% increase year-over-year. Kurly posted GMV growth exceeding 10% for four consecutive quarters, with fourth-quarter growth hitting 16.2%—the highest in three years.
"We achieved our first annual operating profit through stable growth in our core fresh food business and portfolio diversification into new business areas," the company said. Kurly has expanded its product categories to include indie beauty brands, fashion, and home goods alongside its flagship fresh food offerings.
The company attributed strong performance to its fulfillment service (FBK) and third-party seller delivery products. GMV from seller delivery products, including fulfillment services, surged 54.9% over the year. Kurly N Mart, launched with Naver in September, also contributed to overall GMV growth, with monthly transaction volume increasing more than 50% each month since its debut.
Growing adoption of Kurly as a primary grocery shopping platform was another key achievement. Monthly active users rose more than 30% year-over-year as of the end of 2025, while Kurly Members subscribers grew each month to reach a cumulative 1.4 million.
"This annual profit is significant because it shows we have established a business model where revenue growth directly translates to profit expansion through structural innovation," said Kim Jong-hoon, Kurly's Chief Financial Officer. "With a proven profitable model securing sustainable growth momentum, we will accelerate the stable market establishment of new businesses and enhance future value."
