CJ프레시웨이, 마켓보로 품자 재무 변곡점…부채비율 300% 돌파

The company is forced to inject 10 billion won in emergency operating funds into its still-unprofitable subsidiary, signaling severe liquidity pressure and raising questions about the profitability timeline. This exemplifies how legacy food logistics companies face critical trade-offs between growth ambitions and financial stability when pursuing rapid digital transition.
