Coupang Inc. has landed at No. 132 on Fortune magazine's annual Fortune 500 list, climbing 10 spots from last year's ranking of 142nd. It marks the fourth consecutive year the company has appeared on the list.

Fortune ranks America's largest companies by total sales each year, with this year's list based on 2025 annual revenue. Coupang Inc., the parent company of Coupang, first made the list in 2023 at No. 195, then rose to 168th in 2024 and 142nd last year, continuing an upward trend. The company posted annual sales of approximately $34.5 billion last year.

Large-scale investment in AI, robotics and cloud computing are the key drivers of Coupang Inc.'s growth. Coupang applies AI across its logistics network through its proprietary Coupang Intelligent Cloud platform, optimizing regional delivery networks through precise demand forecasting and more efficient fulfillment systems.

This year, the company opened its fourth smart fulfillment and logistics center in Taiwan, strengthening local infrastructure. Its "Rocket Delivery" service now offers next-day delivery seven days a week to roughly 70 percent of Taiwan. Farfetch, which carries more than 1,400 brands and boutiques, serves customers in more than 190 countries.

The company's end-to-end logistics solutions are also driving sales growth for small and midsize businesses worldwide. Sales by small businesses on Coupang's Korean platform rose 21 percent in 2025 from the previous year — more than 100 times the average growth rate for small businesses in South Korea.

Coupang was named to the LexisNexis Top 100 Global Innovators list for the second consecutive year and ranked second in the retail category on Fast Company's "World's Most Innovative Companies 2025."

"Coupang is redefining global commerce by bridging the gap between businesses and customers around the world," said Robert Porter, Coupang Inc.'s chief global affairs officer. "We will create unprecedented opportunities for businesses in Korea, the United States, Taiwan and Japan, as well as customers in the 190 markets we serve."
