Your K-Beauty distributor in Mexico
Mexican shoppers search Korean skincare by name — but the shelf is the hard part. Azkami imports K-beauty brands, handles the COFEPRIS notice and NOM-141 labeling, and places them in the right chains. We already run Korean brands in Mexican retail and know the category.
The opportunity
Korean beauty is already in demand in Mexico
Mexico is one of Latin America's largest beauty markets, with a young, social-first consumer that discovers brands on TikTok and Instagram and searches Korean skincare by name. Demand is there; the barrier is operational — customs, a COFEPRIS sanitary notice for a formula built for another market, and Spanish NOM-141 labeling that almost never ships ready. Azkami runs all three, and as importer of record we carry the legal and sanitary responsibility so you don't open a company here.

How we do it
From Seoul to the Mexican shelf
Assessment for Mexico
We check formula and INCI ingredients against Mexico's restricted lists, review claims, and confirm tariff classification and pricing before committing inventory — Korean formulas sometimes carry an ingredient or claim that needs adjusting.
Importer of record + COFEPRIS
We import under our name and file the sanitary notice in advance. No Mexican entity required on your side.
NOM-141 & retail placement
We adapt labeling to NOM-141 in Spanish and negotiate entry with the right chains for K-beauty — from prestige (Sephora, Liverpool) to broad retail — then activate at point of sale.
