What does ALTA MEET do?

ALTA MEET is a Korean-US cross-border beauty sourcing partner based in New York City. We connect US indie and clean beauty brands with vetted Korean OEM/ODM manufacturers and packaging suppliers. Our bilingual Korean-English team manages the entire process from product development through production and delivery.

Who is ALTA MEET for?

ALTA MEET works with US-based indie beauty brands, clean beauty startups, and DTC skincare companies looking to manufacture products in Korea. We specialize in helping small-to-mid-size brands that are launching their first Korean-made product line or looking to switch to Korean OEM/ODM partners for higher quality formulations.

Why manufacture skincare in Korea instead of domestically?

Korea is the global leader in skincare innovation, with advanced OEM/ODM infrastructure, access to cutting-edge ingredients like PDRN and exosomes, competitive pricing, and flexible MOQs starting as low as 1,000 units. Korean manufacturers also offer faster formulation development cycles compared to most US and European labs.

How is ALTA MEET different from other sourcing agents?

Unlike most sourcing agents who represent manufacturers, ALTA MEET represents the brand. We operate with a transparent, disclosed-fee pricing model so you always know exactly what you are paying for. Our founder has 10+ years of experience in the Korean beauty industry including time at CJ Group (parent company of Olive Young) and 40+ live interpretation engagements at international beauty expos.

Where is ALTA MEET located?

ALTA MEET is based in New York City, NY with direct relationships with Korean OEM/ODM manufacturers and packaging suppliers in Seoul and the greater Gyeonggi Province. We operate in both US and Korea time zones and communicate in both English and Korean.

Who is behind ALTA MEET?

ALTA MEET was founded by Liz Song, a bilingual Korean-American professional with over 10 years of experience in the global beauty and cultural industries. Her background includes five years at CJ Group (the conglomerate behind Olive Young, Korea's largest beauty retailer), experience exhibiting at Cosmoprof Bologna, and 40+ live interpretation engagements at international beauty expos. She has lived and worked in Seoul, Florence, Singapore, and New York City.

Does ALTA MEET speak Korean and English?

Yes. ALTA MEET's founder is natively bilingual in Korean and English. This means all communications with Korean manufacturers, packaging suppliers, and logistics partners are handled directly in Korean — eliminating the mistranslations and cultural misunderstandings that commonly derail cross-border beauty projects.

Does ALTA MEET represent the manufacturer or the brand?

ALTA MEET represents the brand, not the manufacturer. We act as an independent intermediary working in your interest. Unlike many sourcing agents who receive undisclosed commissions from factories, we use a transparent fee structure where our compensation is fully disclosed to the client upfront.

Has ALTA MEET worked with Korean manufacturers before?

Yes. ALTA MEET has established direct relationships with vetted Korean OEM/ODM manufacturers and packaging suppliers through years of industry experience, trade show participation at events like Cosmoprof and InterCHARM Korea, and on-the-ground work in Seoul's beauty manufacturing ecosystem.
