Global brand-building company, The Founders Inc, led by co-CEOs Seonhyeong Lee and Changju Lee, is expanding the presence of its K-beauty skincare brand ANUA in the U.S market through a strategic partnership with beauty retailer, Ulta Beauty.
First launched on Ulta.com in December 2024, ANUA expanded to 1400 stores across the United States on February 2 this year.
