Our proposition

A single company accountable for building your brand in the market

HELMA integrates four platforms that already operate under one commercial plan, one P&L and one point of contact. The brand keeps one interlocutor — HELMA owns the result.

Market access

Portfolio, pricing, channel strategy and negotiation with retail.

Brand & demand

Positioning, creative, media investment and performance.

Operations

Import, regulatory compliance, warehousing and national distribution.

Evidence

Sell-out data, retail audit, dashboards and monthly reporting.

The case for HELMA

A brand does not need only an importer. It needs a market builder.

The four ways an international beauty brand loses value when it enters a new market — and how HELMA prevents each one.

Where brands lose valueWhat HELMA does about it
1
Parallel and grey importsUnauthorised stock arrives first and sets the price.
One official channel, trademark filed on arrival, and an approved retailer list the brand can review and veto.
2
Slow or failed registrationProduct waits in customs while the launch window closes.
Licensed importer, technical director and bonded warehouse already in place; registration handled in-house.
3
Fragmented executionImporter, agency, logistics and retail each answer for a fragment.
One operator, one plan, one P&L: commercial, media, logistics and retail audit report to the same team.
4
No visibility after the invoiceThe brand sees sell-in and never sees sell-out.
Shared dashboard from month one: sell-in, sell-out, coverage, rotation, price and share of shelf.

A single authorised importer and an approved retailer list the brand can review, extend or veto.
