Shanghai Beauty Campus opened two years ago, marking a turning point for the SCM Unit. It is about five times larger than the old production site, and has more advanced production systems, eco-friendly systems and Absolute Quality assurance system. Thanks to all these systems, the SCM Unit is able to produce reliable and safe products directly in China.

"We obtained certificates of ISO 22716: Cosmetics Good Manufacturing Practices, ISO 14000: Environmental Management Standard and OHSAS 18000. Plus, we were recently chosen as a model company by Shanghai FDA and asked to provide on-site training for FDA employees," said Jung Kyungsoo, who is in charge of the SCM Unit.

Amorepacific China is busy working toward its vision of becoming No.3 in China by 2020. To enable this, the SCM Unit is working to keep its manufacturing competitiveness at the top level. The SCM Unit makes products for Mamonde, innisfree and ETUDE HOUSE. It has widened its scope of work from producing skincare products to include mask pack, lipstick and eyeliner categories. It plans to add powder to its production list as part of its production diversification strategy. It has pushed ahead with the localization of raw material supply to strengthen its price competitiveness and, as a result, local production has risen over 50%. Demand in the first year of this year increased about 70% over the last year, but the SCM Unit does not have any problem handling production requests.

Shanghai Beauty Campus has advanced production systems; it has fitness facilities, lounge and auditorium for watching movies on its 3rd floor. As well as members of the SCM Unit, all members of the Logistics Division and Amorepacific R&I Center use facilities, communicate with each other to work better.

"Most members of the SCM Unit are Chinese, especially young people. We provide full support to keep our members happy and productive," said Jung Kyungsoo.

The SCM Unit of Amorepacific China has been growing along Amorepacific's Chinese business since it was launched with Shenyang Plant in 1994. There have been many challenges, but the SCM Unit has developed its own management style, while keeping in mind its lessons learned from Amorepacific HQ. It will continue to keep its advanced production systems up to date and assist Shanghai Beauty Campus in satisfying Chinese customers.

Please, give your support and encouragement to members of Shanghai Beauty Campus, the production, research and logistics hub of Amorepacific China.
