In addition to Samlip General Food and Shany, SPC Group has franchise brands such as Paris Baguette (Bakery) and BR Korea (Donuts and Ice Cream) as subsidiaries.

"SPC" stands for "Samlip/Shany," "Paris Croissant," and "Companies (including BR Korea and other subsidiaries of today and tomorrow)."

[2] In September 2017, SPC was found to have illegally dispatched 5,000 bakers who were hired through partner firms by the Ministry of Employment and Labor (MOEL).

Such employment practices usually helped the company involved to reduce hiring costs as they would not need to give these dispatched labor benefits such as paid vacation or health insurance.

Public opinions about the group turned sour after allegations that the company put a screen around the mixer involved and expected the other workers to continue working on the floor.

[6] On October 24, 2022, it was revealed that the group had more than 100 industrial accidents per year lodged with the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency since 2019.

Samlip General Food, formerly known as Sangmidang, was established in October 1945 by Hur Chang-sung,[8] and is a forerunner of the SPC Group.

The company is also rapidly gaining traction in the restaurant industry with brands such as Queens Park (organic), LaGrilla (Italian), The World Vine (wine), Parlour (European casual cuisine), and Vera Napoli.

Most of Paris Baguette Café's chains are located near the Los Angeles metropolitan area and have been substantially increasing ever since 2008.

In the first year, the company launched Baskin Robbins, cultivating the premium ice cream market in Korea.

Due to much continuous growth, BR Korea now operates over 1800 Baskin Robbins and Dunkin' Donuts brand stores.
