RIMAN Connects Asia-Pacific Markets in Macao

RIMAN, a direct sales company emphasizing skincare and wellness through the principles of Korean beauty, successfully held its 2026 RIMAN Convention from April 17 to 19 at The Londoner Macao. This event gathered around 2,000 members and leaders from seven Asia-Pacific markets.

Held under the theme "MADE DIFFERENT," this convention marked RIMAN's second regional gathering. Participants included representatives from South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, and Japan. The three-day program focused on leadership training, business strategy, and product innovation, aiming to strengthen the company's regional network and expand its global presence.

Executives and regional leaders emphasized aligning local execution with global strategy, sharing case studies from different markets. This collaboration led to a lively roundtable discussion on leadership and the introduction of new products, creating a vibrant atmosphere. Notably, RIMAN's hallmark ingredient, Giant BYoungPool™, was highlighted as a symbol of the company's brand philosophy, resonating deeply with attendees.

The event also showcased RIMAN's research project portfolio. Dr. Hee-sik Kim, Chief Technology Officer of ASK LABS and a researcher at the Korean Institute of Biosciences and Biotechnology, presented a plant-based biomaterial derived from a patented chlorella strain found in Jeju. This material, which has been in development for nearly a decade with an investment of 3.9 billion Korean won (approximately 3 million USD), contains carotenoids such as lutein and zeaxanthin. A launch of new products utilizing this ingredient is expected by the end of this year.

Exhibition areas during the event featured the company's brands — ICD, botalab, and Lifening — as well as digital installations showcasing RIMAN's production and sourcing operations in Jeju. Youngsu Hwang, the global sales director, affirmed that the goal of the convention is to enhance coordination between markets and support long-term growth.
