In this article (6)
Misto Holdings is moving forward with the broadening of Korean designer brand JuunJ throughout Greater China. This expansive action comes on the heels of the premier flagship store’s grand opening in Beijing’s Sanlitun Taikoo Li on August 4th.
A Robust Partnership
The expansion is facilitated through a partnership between Misto and Samsung C&T Fashion Division, which is slated to manage JuunJ’s distribution across Greater China for the next decade through its subsidiaries in Shanghai and Hong Kong.
The Beijing store marks the second location of JuunJ brought to life by Misto in the area, following the debut of another store in Chengdu Taikoo Li in Sichuan province just last month.
Misto’s approach to this expansion is a comprehensive blend of physical retail, digital marketing, and localized brand management. They utilize their extensive experience in supporting Korean fashion brands in China to make this venture a success.
Strengthening Presence
“JuunJ is among the leading global designer brands of Samsung C&T Fashion Division, and our focus is on ensuring that its distinct brand value and creative identity reach consumers across Greater China,” shared a spokesperson for Misto Holdings. “In collaboration with Samsung C&T Fashion Division, we are committed to augmenting JuunJ’s regional presence while simultaneously broadening our collection of premium global fashion brands.”
As Misto continues to leverage the solid momentum from a strong first quarter, this move comes at an opportune time. In May, the South Korean fashion and golf group reported an impressive revenue of KRW1.3 trillion (US$864.9 million), showing a 4.2% growth year on year, thanks to the significant demand for golf equipment and K-fashion brands.
