What we do

Distribution is the start, not the service.

Most distributors import, list and wait. We secure the distribution rights, then run the whole route to market ourselves: retailer negotiations, brand management, beauty advisors at the counter, marketing campaigns, marketplace stores and livestream selling. One team, offline and online, so a brand gets a single partner for both markets.

  1. Land and list

    Secure the right retail doors at the right price architecture.

  2. Build the brand

    Campaigns, content, KOL partnerships, press, out-of-home and TV.

  3. Sell through

    Beauty advisors, trainers, merchandisers and custom point-of-sale displays.

  4. Scale online

    Managed Shopee, Lazada and TikTok Shop stores, Shopify DTC and livestream.

  5. Sustain

    Sell-out data, replenishment, retailer promotions and category growth.
