[The Chosun Ilbo, December 12 2007] LG Sets Sights on 100 Mil. Phone Sales

LG Electronics has set a goal of selling more than 100 million mobile phones around the world next year.

Ahn Seung-kwon, chief director of LG Electronics' mobile phone division, told a press conference on Tuesday that thanks to strong sales of the Chocolate and Shine phones, the company's handset sales are expected to top its goal of 80 million units this year.

"Since sales of new products such as the Prada phone are also smooth, we expect next year's mobile phone sales to increase by more than 25 percent," Ahn said.
