innisfree decides to penetrate Hanoi market by opening its brand shops
Stores at Vincom shopping malls: Vincom not only has the biggest marketshare in Hanoi but also its main customers are young people Therefore,
opening stores at Vincom shopping malls help innisfree access to target
customers quickly as well as advertise its brand easily
Small stores will be opened around university campuses where many 20's
come and go By doing that, innisfree can easily access a large number of
potential customers because more and more students are concerned abouttheir appearance and they are looking for products suitable for their
income level innisfree is exactly their solution and it is better if students can find out their solution right outside their campuses innisfree can open
a store in Chua Lang street where there are 5 universities around there
After getting customer’s awareness, we will concentrate on expanding ourmarket share as well as implement strategies to compete with othercompetitors
In particular, we will actively offer samples to universities and also participate

CHAPTER VI: BACKGROUND/ BUSINESS ANALYSIS
1 Mission, Vision, Core value
Mission

harmony We share the benefits of nature from Jeju island for vibrant beautyand pursues an eco-friendly green life to preserve the balance of nature

Trang 82 Financial Analysis
In 2019, the sales revenue of innisfree amounted to around 552 billion South
Korean won, a decrease from around 600 billion won in the previous year
innisfree is one of the most popular cosmetics brands in South Korea The
company had a market share of 4.1 percent in 2016
Trang 9CHAPTER VII: MARKET ANALYSIS
Vietnam is the fastest expanding beauty and personal care industry in Asia,according to data published in Market Of The Future (2016) This isdemonstrated by the fact that about 90% of imported cosmetics are sold inVietnam, compared to only 10% of domestic brands (Vietnam ChemicalCosmetics Association 2016), implying that demand for People's beauty andpersonal care has increased significantly in recent years, particularly in twocities such as Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi, where a growing number of middle-class consumers reside
The demand for organic products has risen in recent years Consumers thinkthat these items are not only safer and of higher quality, but they are alsomore ecologically friendly As a result, certain well-known companies, such asthe face shop, the body shop, and etude house, pay attention to thisrequirement and meet it well
However, the majority of these well-known brands in Vietnam are geared athigh-end clients, with the target market being the middle to upper class, withonly a few names catering to the general public intermediate and low-incomeearners, particularly those between the ages of 15 and 30 As a result, theVietnamese market is still seeking for low-cost organic items from a well-
known brand As a result, innisfree chose the Vietnamese market, with its
target clients being medium and low-income individuals
CHAPTER VIII: COMPETITORS ANALYSIS
The Face Shop, The Body Shop, Etude House, Laneige, and other overseas
brands compete with innisfree The market will continue to grow in the future, resulting in more competition That is also a huge challenge for innisfree when
competing with prominent companies in the business, as well as a chance for
innisfree to establish its brand in the cosmetics market innisfree currently has
two The Face Shop and The Body Shop brands in Vietnam, which are directcompetitors

Trang 11CHAPTER IX: MARKETING STRATEGIES
1 Place:
According to a survey conducted by DI Marketing, most people prefer tobuy attractive products at shopping malls (61%) and street brand stores
with 48% Taking advantage of this shopping habit of consumers, innisfree
decided to enter the market in Vietnam by opening its brand stores
Stores in shopping malls (Vincom, AEON Mall, SC Vivocit, ): Shoppingcenters not only occupy a large market share in Vietnam, but thecustomers are mainly young people Therefore, opening a store at a
shopping mall helps innisfree reach target customers quickly as well as
advertise the brand easily
Small shops will be opened around the university campus, where many 20
year old come and go That way, innisfree can easily reach a large number
of potential customers because more and more students are concernedabout their appearance and they are looking for products that are suitable
for their income level innisfree is exactly their solution and it would be
better if students could learn their solution right outside their campus
