Improving Access to Derma-Cosmetic Brands in Vietnam

DKSH joined hands with a leading derma-cosmetic brand to provide better access to quality consumer health products.



LG Vina oversees the management of the Physiogel brand in Vietnam. Originating from Germany with over 175 years of heritage, it is a trusted brand endorsed by dermatologists for its efficacy in addressing dry, sensitive, and irritated skin.

 

Challenge

According to a report by Inkwood, Vietnam's skincare industry is poised to reach USD 1.3 billion by 2028, marking a significant 6.47% CAGR increase from 2022. This growth is attributed to rising demand for sensitive skin products and a heightened focus on personal health among Vietnamese consumers.

In anticipation of this growth, local and global enterprises are strategically planning cooperative efforts and long-term initiatives to reach consumers.

 

Approach

In March 2024, we partnered with LG Vina to extend the reach of its derma-cosmetic line, Physiogel. Recognizing the burgeoning skincare market in Vietnam, LG Vina aimed to boost the brand’s presence and recognition among consumers in the market.

This partnership is a pivotal component of the brand's development strategy, aimed at bringing Physiogel closer to Vietnamese consumers through various channels including pharmacy chains, health and beauty care outlets, and online platforms.

Among the various omnichannel services we provide to boost the brand presence of Physiogel in Vietnam, the An Khang pharmacy chain stands as one of our key strategic partners. It plays a vital role in expanding access to quality nutrition, derma-cosmetics, and consumer health products in the market.

An Khang, established in 2002 and subsequently acquired by the Mobile World Group in 2017, has emerged as the third-largest pharmacy chain in Vietnam with over 500 outlets. As a leading pharmacy chain, An Khang prioritizes stocking genuine healthcare products.

To meet the growing consumer interest in health products, besides Physiogel, we also supply An Khang with a diverse range of offerings spanning nutrition, derma-cosmetics, consumer health, and consumer goods.

 

Result

Through our extensive network of local partners and profound market insights, we helped Phsiogel build its presence and sales growth in the Vietnamese market.

By partnering with us, An Khang has been able to efficiently procure and deliver an expanded array of premium healthcare products to Vietnamese consumers across their outlets.

 

Given Physiogel's status as a beloved cosmetic brand in Korea, we are confident that our collaboration with DKSH will elevate our brand to similar acclaim in Vietnam.
