Wholesale K-beauty into US retail.
Luxmetics distributes Korean beauty brands into US department stores, specialty retail, and online marketplaces — with pricing architecture, MAP enforcement, and 3PL logistics handled in-house. We also place brands through RangeME and our direct distributor network.
Who this is for
- National retailers — Pallet-level wholesale into department stores, beauty chains, and specialty retail.
- E-commerce platforms — Drop-ship and FBM fulfillment into Amazon, TikTok Shop, and DTC marketplaces.
- Regional distributors — Sub-distribution partnerships with regional exclusivity and joint marketing support.
Channels we distribute through
Eight active sell-in channels across US retail and e-commerce: department stores, beauty chains, specialty retail, med spa networks, pro distributors, Amazon FBA, TikTok Shop, and DTC marketplaces.
How we distribute
- Channel fit — We map each brand to the US channels where it’ll move at full margin — not a fire sale.
- Pricing & terms — MSRP architecture, distributor margins, MAP enforcement, and freight terms negotiated upfront.
- Logistics — Sea/air freight from Korea, US customs clearance, warehouse intake, and 3PL pick-pack-ship.
- Compliance — MoCRA registration, FDA labeling review, and US-spec bilingual packaging before first shipment.
- Sell-through — Quarterly business reviews, replenishment forecasting, and marketing co-op support.
Case study
A Korean serum brand hit $1.2M in US wholesale year one.
A Seoul indie skincare brand wanted US distribution without losing pricing control. We built a three-channel strategy — specialty retail, regional distributors, and Amazon Brand Registry — and held MAP from day one. Results: $1.2M year-one wholesale, 147 retail doors, 0 MAP violations.
Questions, answered
Do you hold inventory in the US?
Yes. We operate from a New Jersey 3PL with capacity for 500+ SKUs and same-day fulfillment for most channels.
What are your minimum order quantities for retailers?
MOQs depend on the brand and channel; we set them so your doors stay in stock without over-committing.
How do you enforce MAP across channels?
We monitor pricing across channels and act on violations to protect brand value.
Can you ship internationally outside the US?
Our core network is US-focused; international routes are handled case by case.
Do you handle Amazon-specific challenges (gating, IP, brand registry)?
Yes — including Brand Registry, gating, and IP protection.
