Built inside
the industry.
JP Semi Group was founded by people who came from the fab floor — not from finance. We understood the problem before we built the solution.
In 2012, John Park was running scrap operations for a major IDM when his facility began a node transition. Millions of dollars in working equipment had nowhere to go. The brokers they called were slow, opaque, and moved things once. Nobody stayed accountable for what happened next.
So he built the firm he wished had existed. JP Semi Group started as a two-person operation in San Jose focused on responsible equipment remarketing. Today we operate across 34 countries, eight service lines, and every phase of the equipment lifecycle — with the same founding principle: one team, one thread of accountability, start to finish.
We are not a marketplace. We are not a logistics company. We are specialists who understand the equipment, the regulations, and the economics — and we stay involved until the job is done.
Four things
we won't compromise on.
We take on fewer engagements than we could. Every project has a named lead who is reachable, responsible, and measured by the outcome — not the headcount.
We tell you what an asset is worth, not what you want to hear. Our assessments are grounded in current market data and signed by the engineer who ran them.
A working tool that gets scrapped is a failure of logistics, not physics. We built this business to close that gap — redirecting equipment, parts, and materials to where they are still useful.
Every engagement closes with a full paper trail: condition reports, chain-of-custody, financial summary, compliance certificates. You should always know exactly what happened.
