Description

Your Europe ↔ Korea/APAC market entry partner

I help European brands land and grow in Korea and the wider APAC market turning market research into signed pipeline, not just a strategy deck.

For the past 4+ years I've worked on both sides of the table: inside a global logistics leader (GEODIS) driving B2B sales for European brands in Korea, and earlier in supply chain and marketing roles spanning Sanofi and Thales. Along the way I hit 114% of my annual sales targets, generated $120K+ in profit for the European brands I supported, and built relationships with 50+ stakeholders from regional managers to C-level executives.

What I can do for you:

• Map the competitive landscape and build a realistic go-to-market plan for Korea/APAC

• Identify and approach the right distributors, logistics partners, and local contacts

• Run B2B prospecting and pipeline management until deals close

• Set up CRM and reporting (Salesforce, Power BI, Tableau) so you can see what's working

• Represent your brand at events and exhibitions on the ground in Seoul

I'm based in Seoul and fluent in French, English, and Korean, so nothing gets lost between headquarters and the local market.

If you're a European brand eyeing Korea or APAC and want someone who already knows how the deals actually get done there, let's talk !
