Feelunique

Premium Online Beauty & Cosmetics Retailer in the UK

Feelunique is Europe's largest online premium beauty retailer, offering 35,000 products from over 800 brands worldwide. Feelunique developed international retail sites across 120 markets worldwide.

Multi-channel e-commerce presence in China

Due to various limitation such as animal tests and supply chain, Feelunique decided to sell directly to China via cross-border e-commerce instead of building local retail presence. Azoya provides a suite of digital solutions and services to help retailers and brands sell cross-border to China, which is a great fit for Feelunique. Apart from tackling various challenges including e-com platform, international logistics, and payments, Azoya also provide end-to-end customer care services from digital marketing, conversion and customer retention.

As new consumer trends/consumption behaviours emerge, Azoya and Feelunique work together to explore untapped potential and flourish on China’s popular e-commerce and social media platforms, including Tmall Global, WeChat mini program.

1.Multi-channel China e-commerce (official brand presence through a Chinese language transactional website, WeChat mini-program, native mobile APP and marketplace stores including Tmall Global, JD Worldwide, Kaola and Little Red Book)

2.Daily operation: campaign planning, merchandising, promotion planning, customer service, logistics management, etc.

3.Digital marketing across various platforms: social media, search engines, marketing partnership, live-streaming, influencer (KOL) marketing, paid media.

4.Brand management: content creation, public relationship management, social hearing

5.Customer loyalty building, customer relation management, membership systems

6.Data analytics and strategy consulting

Brands rely on the customers of marketplaces to get to know the brand and make the purchase. Tmall Global has been reckoned as the best place for international retailers to test the China market and grow sales, as Tmall Global owns a colossal number of users and the user demographic is certain.

Feelunique social commerce footprints

In 2015, Azoya helped Feelunique quickly set up presence via official China e-commerce site, which was localised to create a user experience for Chinese customers. To reassure Chinese consumers that they are buying directly from an authentic British retailer, Feelunique’s global official website invite Chinese users to visit its.CN site. Customers pay the same prices as they do in UK - a competitive offer that has made Feelunique a popular online place for high-quality, imported cosmetics in China.

With over 5 years of successful independent store operation, Feelunique launched the official China dedicated App (iOS & Android) in April 2020 for loyal customers. The App is completely designed for Chinese shopping behaviour and leverages various China-exclusive functions. 

Following the success of its standalone site and Tmall Global’s flagship store, Azoya assists the renown British beauty retailer to develop a robust social presence in China.
