History of Althea
Althea was launched by Frank Kang in partnership with Christopher Cynn and Jae Kim, in June 2015. Co-founder and CEO Frank Kang, a Korean, hit on the idea for an online K-Beauty products store when he was living in Malaysia and was frequently requested by his friends to bring back Korean beauty products whenever he travelled to his home country.
The Korean cosmetics are famed for their superior quality, owing to the fast-paced product innovation in the K-Beauty industry, which is manifested in the use of unique ingredients such as snail mucous, horse oil and 24k gold. Despite the immense popularity and high demand for K-beauty products, their availability is very scarce in most parts of the world. To address this demand, Althea was launched in Malaysia in 2015 and was expanded to Singapore, Indonesia, Philippines and Thailand within one year.
The company s vision is to introduce new and authentic products by beauty brands that exclusively operate in Korea and need a dedicated route to overseas sales. CEO Frank Kang estimates these K-beauty brands to be around 10,000 in number, offering a massive business opportunity to all the stakeholders.
In 2016, Althea raised US $3.5 million for Series A round of expansion, provided by investors like Mirae Asset Ventures, 500 Startups, Posco Ventures, Tekton Ventures and Cherubic Ventures. In the first phase of expansion, Althea focused mainly on Southeast Asian markets. Within a year, Althea claimed to attract 500,000 monthly unique visitors on their website and were recognised by Forbes as Southeast Asia s largest Korean Beauty website with an annualised revenue run rate of $10 million.
In Series B round in 2017, Althea raised US $7 million from investors including Korea Development Bank, Bridges Alliance Partners, FirstFloor Capital, Innoven Capital and Tekton Ventures. These funds were utilised by Althea to launch and grow its private-label product line and expand its reach globally.
Since its launch in 2015, the company has diversified from being an online retailer for third parties, to developing and marketing its in-house product line.
