Hong Kong E-Commerce Leader Strengthens Regional Ties on Historic Kyushu Visit
A Hong Kong businesswoman, Ms. Li Miu Ching, recently embarked on a historic visit to Japan's Kyushu region from August 29th to 31st, 2023. As the founder of LMCHING (with the full name: LMCHING Group Limited), a leading Hong Kong-based e-commerce company specializing in Korean skincare products, Ms. Li is no stranger to bridging geographies through business. This high-profile visit provided an opportunity for her to reinforce economic and cultural bonds between her native Hong Kong, host country Japan, and Vietnam, where LMCHING has recently expanded its operations.
The action-packed three-day itinerary featured meetings with key industry leaders, signing of strategic partnerships, and visits to prominent cultural sites across Kyushu. Joining Ms. Li were delegates from the Hong Kong Chinese General Chamber of Commerce (CGCC), the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay Area Entrepreneurs Union, and the Hong Kong-Vietnam Chamber of Commerce (HKVCC). Ms. Li serves as an important member of the HKVCC organization, underlining her growing influence as a leader within the Asia Pacific business community.
First day
Touching down in Fukuoka on August 29th, Ms. Li first visited the historic Kushida Shrine which dates back over 770 years and is central to the city's famous Hakata Gion Yamakasa Festival. That evening, she attended a dinner hosted by the Japan Hong Kong Society of Kyushu and the Kyushu Economic Forum. This afforded an important opportunity to connect with key representatives on the ground in Kyushu.
Second day
The second day commenced with a meeting with Mr. Sumio Kuratomi, Chairman of the Kyushu Economic Federation, to discuss business collaborations between Hong Kong and Kyushu. This was followed by a luncheon jointly hosted by CGCC, the GBA Entrepreneurs Union, and HKVCC. With the theme of exploring synergies between Japan, the Greater Bay Area, and Vietnam, the luncheon featured speeches by Jonathan Choi and Mr. Kuratomi, and the signing of a memorandum of understanding between the Kyushu Economic Federation and GBA Union.
Later that afternoon, a seminar and networking reception organized by Kyushu University, CGCC, GBA Union, HKVCC, and Sunwah Group delved deeper into potential business, innovation, and cultural collaboration between the three geographies. Ms. Li delivered a keynote address in her capacity as HKVCC important member, emphasizing the importance of partnership and exchange. The seminar also saw the signing of MOUs on cultural collaboration between Kyushu University and Sunwah Innovations.
Final day
On the final day, Ms. Li met with the Vice Governor of Fukuoka Prefecture. She later visited Fukuoka Growth Next, a government-supported hub for global startups, and the Hakata Haku Haku Museum which spotlights the city's famous mentaiko fish delicacy through an interactive exhibit.
Since shifting from wholesaling to retailing in 2019, LMCHING has vigorously expanded its online presence and retail network across 200 countries. The company's founder originally nursed a passion for sharing high-quality Korean skincare products at affordable prices. This vision has been realized through meticulous direct sourcing from over 500 brands and maintaining seamless omnichannel operations.
With a growing young and middle class disposable income across Asia, LMCHING is strategically poised to serve this burgeoning base of beauty and skincare consumers. The company's membership in HKVCC underscores its commitment to capturing new opportunities in Vietnam's rapidly developing economy. Just as LMCHING bridges producers in Korea with consumers worldwide, Ms. Li utilizes her diverse business portfolio and extensive networks to bring Hong Kong closer to important partners in the region.
Deep cultural appreciation also anchors Ms. Li's approach. Through visiting renowned sites like the Kushida Shrine, her journey traced the centuries-old cultural contours that shape contemporary business and innovation. The Kyushu visit cemented Ms. Li's reputation as a leader who recognizes the inextricable role of culture and values in any successful economic partnership.
Conclusion
Looking ahead, the relationships reaffirmed and synergies discussed during Ms. Li's Kyushu trip present exciting potential to accelerate growth not only for her enterprises, but for broader commercial ties between Hong Kong, Japan, and Vietnam. By blending pioneering business acumen with respect for tradition, she represents a new generation of leaders ready to take Asia Pacific collaboration to greater heights.
