MOQ Essentials
The MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) varies by manufacturer, as it is often influenced by factors such as the container design, material specifications, and any unique production requirements.
Intercos Korea Inc. is the South Korean subsidiary of the global cosmetics‐contract manufacturer Intercos Group. It serves as Intercos’ strategic Asian hub, combining R&D, innovation, and manufacturing under the group’s global standards.The Korean branch was originally part of a joint venture with Shinsegae International (known as “Shinsegae Intercos Korea”), but since mid-2020, Intercos Group acquired the remaining share, making it fully owned by Intercos.
Core Strengths
- Full-spectrum cosmetic manufacturing: skin-care, color cosmetics, personal care.
- Global standards of quality, safety, innovation and scalability — consistent with Intercos Group’s worldwide operations.
- Asian Beauty “hub” with local R&D and manufacturing — which may help in adapting formulations to Asian consumers.
Business Model
- Intercos Korea operates as a contract manufacturer / OEM–ODM provider. It takes cosmetic formulations, develops them (or jointly develops), produces, and packages final products for cosmetic brands. It does not sell under its own beauty-brand (or at least does not publicly market its own branded cosmetics).
-
For clients (brands) typically other cosmetics or beauty companies — Intercos Korea offers end-to-end services: R&D, formulation, packaging design, production, regulatory compliance. This mirrors the global “from concept to reality” service model of Intercos Group.
Why it Matters for you (B2B/Distribution perspective)
If you are a brand (or planning to launch a brand) targeting Asian markets or global markets with “K-beauty”-style cosmetics, Intercos Korea offers access to:
- High-quality manufacturing aligned with global standards — useful for export or multi-market distribution.
- Local R&D team experienced with Asian consumer preferences — which may help adapt formulations/sunscreen/skin-type considerations.
- Packaging + full supply-chain handling (formulation, production, filling, packaging, compliance) — reducing overhead for brand owners.
- Thus, as a distributor or private-label brand, working with Intercos Korea could help you get scalable, quality manufacturing without building your own factory.
