BEVi Asia Pacific lauded at Asian Export Awards 2024
It has pioneered the commercial use of kojic acid in the Philippines since its founding in 2006.
BEVi Asia Pacific has achieved a major milestone by winning the Asian Export Awards 2024 for Philippines Market Development of the Year - Personal Care Category. This recognition highlights the company’s role in boosting the Asian export economy by establishing itself as a leading name in the beauty and personal care category across domestic and international markets.
Central to BEVi Asia Pacific’s success is its flagship product, Kojiesan, the first kojic acid soap in the Philippines. This groundbreaking product introduced the powerful skin-brightening benefits of kojic acid to a market where such formulations were relatively unknown. Propelled by an extensive distribution network, Kojiesan’s powerful formula swiftly gained nationwide popularity, building a strong consumer following and cementing the company’s reputation as a leader in personal care innovation.
Kojiesan’s phenomenal story has not only been pivotal for the local market but has also sparked international interest. Recognising the need to meet growing international demand, BEVi Asia Pacific worked diligently to forge distribution alliances and build its global market presence. These strategic partnerships have enabled the company to leverage local market expertise and distribution networks to expand its global footprint whilst reinforcing its ability to adapt products to fit different cultural and economic environments.
A key factor behind BEVi Asia Pacific’s export success is its ability to tailor its brand message to resonate with international audiences without compromising the brand’s core identity. This adaptive approach has been a critical component of its global growth strategy. In a world where consumer preferences and cultural nuances vary significantly, BEVi Asia Pacific’s success lies in its skill to stay true to its roots whilst speaking the language of diverse consumers.
Since its founding in 2006, the company has penetrated multiple international markets, establishing a prominent presence in countries such as Indonesia, Vietnam, Taiwan, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, South Africa, France, Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Australia, and the United States, amongst others. Whilst it all started with Kojiesan lightening products, BEVi Asia Pacific now offers a diverse range of products across different categories, including anti-ageing, anti-acne, men's grooming, sun protection, hygiene, aromatherapy, and health and wellness. This expansion into diverse categories and global markets reflects the company’s adaptability to meet evolving consumer needs.
Winning at the Asian Export Award validates BEVi Asia Pacific’s dedication to product innovation and market expansion. The award celebrates not only the company’s achievements but also affirms its relentless pursuit of excellence, innovation, and consumer impact. Whilst BEVi Asia Pacific continues to navigate the challenges of an ever-changing global landscape, its dedication to evolving and meeting consumer needs will undoubtedly propel it to even greater heights.
