The company distributes its products globally across health and beauty (H&B) specialty retail chains, duty-free shops, corporate e-commerce platforms, and leading multi-brand online marketplaces throughout South Korea, Japan, Greater China, Southeast Asia, North America, and Europe. In recent developments, the company has significantly expanded its direct international presence through the strategic acquisition of Japanese cosmetics distribution partners Doowon and Kiwami, establishing a direct local subsidiary network to streamline regional supply chains and retail merchandising. In addition, the company has accelerated its omnichannel expansion across North America by scaling retail distribution into major brick-and-mortar retail chains, expanding cross-border e-commerce operations, and strategically broadening its functional skincare and derma-cosmetics export mix to optimize revenue diversification beyond color makeup.
