June 6 (Bernama) -- Malaysia's top skin care and beauty chain company, Clara International, is looking to Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia as it continues its expansion abroad.
Founder and chairman, Datin Dr Clara L. Chee, said the company was seeking the right partners to tap into these new emerging economies of the region.
"We are already in Myanmar and doing well while finalising plans to establish a foothold in Thailand.
The time is right for us to make an entry into Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia," Chee said after receiving the Asean Outstanding Woman Entrepreneur Award 2008 here Thursday night.
Chee, 65, who started Clara International as a beauty salon in 1977, received the award at the Global Women's Summit which is attended by more than 900 delegates from 70 countries.
Chee said the Vietnamese women had healthy skin when young.
"But at 35, they start to age. But with the right education and an awareness programme, they can continue to maintain a healthy skin," she said.
Chee said Clara International's top overseas markets at present were China and India where its master franchisee has established more than 90 hair salons.
"All our products are customised and climate-specific. They are developed at our own research facilities," she said.
Clara International, which has over 59 beauty centres in Malaysia, also runs the Clara International Aesthetic College.
The company's products also have halal certification and Chee planned to franchise them in Australia, France, Canada and Africa.
