Why We Hire

We aim to achieve the top market share in the apparel e-commerce sector, with ‘Acquiring New Brands to Open Stores’ at the core of this strategy.
We are particularly intensifying efforts to acquire leading domestic and international brands, as well as niche, high-sensitivity brands that have not been actively pursuing e-commerce expansion.
