IPO-bound Honasa Consumer is ramping up efforts to expand the international market for its flagship brand, Mamaearth.
The beauty and personal care brand is partnering with local channels for its venture into Bangladesh, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Thailand.
In some overseas markets such as the UAE, Singapore, Nepal, Malaysia, Maldives and Mauritius, it currently operates either through modern trade and e-commerce platforms, or its brand website.
Recently, the company’s senior vice-president for offline and international business, Ashish Mishra, quit to join D2C personal care brand Clensta as co-founder and chief business officer.
