Nu Skin to enter Beijing Market

BEIJING (XFN-ASIA) - Nu Skin Enterprises, a direct seller of high-end skin care products, expects to receive an operating licence in the Chinese capital this year after recently receiving approval to operate in Shanghai, company officials said.

'We've received the approval in Shanghai, and expect to also be approved in the Beijing market sometime later this year,' Beijing-based company spokeswoman Jacky Shi told XFN-Asia.

She said the company planned to be operational nationwide eventually, but said an estimate on timing was 'very difficult to make as each region must be applied for separately.'
