CASE STUDY
Qiviuk China Market Entry
Using KOLs and live-streaming to achieve 2000%+ increase in e-commerce sales
BEYOO worked with QIVIUK, a Canadian brand specializing in handcrafted and sustainable luxury clothing, to successfully launch its China market e-commerce and social media.

About QIVIUK
The name Qiviuk originates from Qiviut – “the warmest, softest wool fiber and yarn found on earth.” The brand has partnered with the Arctic Indigenous population in Canada to help produce its products and consumers can find a variety of products including clothing for women, men, children and accessories.
The Challenge
One of the brands’ main customer groups is Chinese tourists. COVID had a significant impact on the brand as Chinese tourism in Canada is struggling to return back to normal and there is no timeline on when it will return to levels prior to the pandemic.
In the meantime, luxury spending in China has been decreasing significantly year after year since the end of COVID. Many major luxury brands are struggling to survive in China. Without any brick-and-mortar store in China, it also presents great challenges to build trust with customers.
