Editor’s Note
**Editor’s Note:** KREO Co., Ltd. has secured permits for cosmetic and quasi-drug manufacturing at its Shizuoka Promotion Center, launching a comprehensive end-to-end contract service from material production to delivery.
KREO Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Marunouchi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Tsukasa Yokoi) has acquired permits for cosmetic manufacturing and quasi-drug manufacturing (packaging, labeling, and storage) at its Shizuoka Promotion Center. The company has officially launched a comprehensive contract service that handles everything from material production to assembly, logistics, and delivery in a seamless, end-to-end process. By centralizing operations within its logistics hub, KREO eliminates the management costs and time lags previously incurred when manufacturers and retailers outsourced multiple processes to separate companies. This enables faster and smoother product launches, supporting clients to focus more on their core business activities such as product planning and sales strategies.
■ Total Support for Cosmetic and Quasi-Drug Promotions Within the Hub
In the promotion of cosmetics and quasi-drugs, tasks such as set assembly, label application, and inspection are essential. However, these detailed operations can often encroach on time needed for core product planning and sales strategies. KREO has received numerous requests from client companies in its marketing and promotion support operations, expressing a desire to entrust everything from promotion to logistics in a single package. To meet this need, the company has established a dedicated area within the Shizuoka Promotion Center and obtained the necessary manufacturing permits (packaging, labeling, and storage). This setup allows for the completion of promotional material creation, product processing, and delivery all in one location.
■ Flexible Integration of “Logistics and Manufacturing” to Meet Promotional Needs
With this permit acquisition, KREO’s logistics hub now also functions as a manufacturing site. Key tasks that can be handled include:
– Packaging and Setup: Gift sets, multi-SKU combinations, inclusion of accessories (e.g., spatulas, puffs), and insertion into individual boxes.
– Labeling and Printing: Application of legally required labels, insertion of package inserts and instruction manuals, and printing of lot numbers on products.
– Recovery and Inspection: Inspection of defective items arising during distribution, repackaging, and resealing to maintain sales opportunities.
By combining its existing marketing know-how in planning and producing promotional campaigns with these new manufacturing and logistics services, KREO aims to support smoother and more effective product launches beyond simple task outsourcing. On-site, manufacturing technical engineers are consistently involved from quality checks to shipment decisions, ensuring a system that does not separate logistics from compliance with the Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Act (PMD Act). This guarantees reliable quality control and flexible responses, supporting clients’ sales activities.
