International, 14th February 2024 | Minimalist, India’s leading science-backed skincare brand, announces its expansion into three new markets: Singapore, Vietnam, and Australia. This move reinforces the brand’s commitment to bringing its effective and transparent skincare solutions to a wider and international audience.
Minimalist focuses on millennials and Gen Z seeking effective, yet gentle skincare solutions. Their research revealed a thriving user base in Singapore, Vietnam, and Australia, actively seeking clinically tested, transparent, and effective skincare products. This perfectly aligns with Minimalist’s core values. Instead of traditional advertising, Minimalist prioritizes educating consumers about diverse skin concerns and their solutions. They utilize platforms like TikTok Shops in key markets to deliver informative content directly to users. Their approach is online-first, starting with D2C channels and marketplaces, followed by strategic retail partnerships as demand grows.
Mr Mohit Yadav, Co-founder of Minimalist, beams with excitement as they shares, “Bringing our clinically proven, active-ingredient skincare to these vibrant new markets fills us with immense thrill! We saw a clear call for dependable skincare solutions amongst millennials and Gen Z in these regions, and we’re confident our values and approach deeply resonate with them.”
Beyond Singapore’s Shopee and Tokopedia, Vietnam’s Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shop, Minimalist has landed on Australia’s Amazon, the UK’s Beauty Bay and TikTok Shop, and Saudi Arabia’s Noon. Soon, a major Malaysian retail chain will join the party in Southeast Asia and will see its haircare range debut after the skincare success. Looking ahead, European expansion and solidifying their footprint in key regions like the UK, USA, GCC, and Southeast Asia top the agenda for 2024-2025, fueled by their commitment to transparency, education, and clinically tested formulas.
Minimalist’s primary aim is to build brand awareness among international audiences and establish itself as a leading global skincare brand. Their expansion plans also include strengthening their presence in existing markets like the United Kingdom, United States of America, GCC, and Southeast Asia through additional channels and geographic reach.
As Minimalist’s journey transcends borders, one thing remains constant – their dedication to empowering individuals with reliable, science-backed skincare. This strategic expansion lays the groundwork for a global community united by healthy, radiant skin, fueled by transparency, education, and a commitment to understanding the needs of millennial and Gen Z consumers. With exciting plans and an unwavering focus on quality, Minimalist is poised to become a leading force in the global skincare landscape, leaving a lasting mark on the faces and hearts of individuals worldwide.
