Your All-in-One Partner.
From Idea to Product
For almost 40 years, we have been planning, developing, and selling cosmetics and other products to address women’s health and beauty needs. From product concept planning to manufacturing, we assist our customers in creating the best possible products with our Japan-quality OEM/ODM network and one-stop service.
Business Framework
Providing end-to-end support, handling marketing, planning, creatives, manufacturing, and sales of cosmetics.
The cosmetics business environment continues to evolve at an unimaginably fast pace.
Newcomers wishing to develop new products independently face many challenges on the way to achieving this goal. These challenges include not owning a factory or other facilities to manufacture the products or a lack of expertise.
To make a brand successful, it is essential to have deep knowledge and understanding of the industry, the latest trends, and a highly accurate market outlook, each of which requires highly specialized expertise.
We have accumulated a wealth of know-how backed by 40 years of experience in cosmetics development and an extensive network of connections with a wide range of ODM/OEM manufacturers and container material manufacturers. We can prepare efficient and effective product proposals that make our customers’ ideas a reality.
