About Sociolla

Sociolla is headquartered in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia. It was co-founded by Christopher Madiam, John Rasjid and Chrisanti Indiana in March 2015. It provides hundreds of local and foreign beauty brands. Users can choose by brand or product category. The product content covers beauty, skin care, hair care, bath, nail art, accessories, perfume and gifts.

The three founders of Sociolla come from different fields: an associate director of UBS Investment Bank, a professional designer of a Sydney PR company, and a supply chain manager of a Sydney fast-selling company. The three have different backgrounds, but they are all very optimistic about e-commerce and think that the beauty industry seems to be a good entry point.

SOCO is a community platform, short for Sociolla Connect. This social platform can help Sociolla achieve its vision of changing the beauty industry.
