Young Living’s Impressive Growth in Indonesia

Problem

As the world leader in essential oil products and wellness solutions, Young Living has successfully produced and distributed one of the most genuine essential oils worldwide. 

Young Living is committed to providing pure and powerful products with life-changing benefits for every family.

Established in 1994, Young Living has its main headquarters in Lehi, Utah, and has offices across Australia, Europe, Canada, Japan, Singapore, and farms worldwide.

At the end of 2015, Young Living decided to open a branch office in Indonesia located in Jakarta. Through PT Young Living Indonesia, the company seizes an excellent opportunity to serve the Indonesian market with its products and some variants of its products.

Solution

Young Living decided to engage InCorp Indonesia (formerly Cekindo) as their consultant company in Indonesia to provide local partner services, including legal advice on some documents regarding their intention to establish their legal entity in Indonesia. 

Since their core business is direct selling (multi-level marketing), they were keen to import their essential oil products and food and dietary supplements and distribute them in the local market for Indonesian customers.

Services Provided by InCorp Indonesia

Young Living appointed InCorp Indonesia as their consultant for their product registration process along with local partner services. 

They engaged with Cekindo to provide them with the following services during the initial stage of their product registration process:

• Food and Dietary Supplement Registration
• Local Partner Service

Result

At this stage, InCorp Indonesia successfully provided local partner services to support the company formation of Young Living in Indonesia. 

Currently, InCorp Indonesia is managing the company’s product registration for food and dietary supplement for Young Living to obtain approval from the National Agency for Drug and Food Control (BPOM).

Challenges and Cross Services

The whole process was conducted within a specified time. Obtaining product licenses requires expansive knowledge and experience with the Indonesian regulations on product registration and being up to date on any changes in the regulations.

The communication between InCorp Indonesia and the client (Young Living) was important during project implementation to ensure excellent coordination under the requirements of the local authorities.
