“Do what you are good at. Focus on what is important. Let the experts take care of the rest. Cafe24, our ecosystem, and our partners can help you manage your business so that you can direct your attention to what matters.

In most countries, online merchants sell their products on major platforms like Amazon. In Korea, people that want to sell products simply open their online store and start selling. The store becomes an independent brand like Stylenanda. This is called Direct to Customer, or DTC.

All this is possible on Cafe24’s platform. Starting an e-commerce business usually entails setting up a store template and coding on your own. There are also AI and chatbots. But with Cafe24, you don’t need to know everything.

If you are a fashionable person, you can channel your creativity into making your own products. Everything else you can trust with experts like Cafe24 and our partners.”

Chae-seung Lee, CEO of CHAEBUBBLE

“I started out as an influencer on Instagram and ended up in the fashion and apparel business.
I used to do everything on my own and it was too much for me to handle. But since knowing Cafe24, it became much easier to grow my business because the things I couldn’t do alone were all systematically provided within the platform.”

Soo-jin Lee, CEO of MORENVY, Cafe24 partner

“Cafe24 and its partners within the Cafe24 ecosystem can serve as excellent stepping stones for online brands to expand globally.”

Changkyu Choi, EC Director of Cafe24

“Online merchants can create and manage multiple global stores in English, Chinese, Japanese, and more on a single platform. It is an integrated platform. For instance, it is also possible for an Israeli startup to integrate to Cafe24’s platform and provide their functions to Japanese customers.

Global to Global e-commerce is when everything is possible on a global level from the market’s perspective, the customer’s perspective and the platform’s perspective.”

Jaesuk Lee, CEO of Cafe24

“When e-commerce first emerged, it was just about buying and selling products. But in recent years, UI and UX have become very important. In other words, the end-user must be able to have a pleasant shopping experience.
Today we once again realized that Cafe24 must strive harder to create a sound ecosystem in which everyone involved can lead and follow the e-commerce trend.”
