Who are Team Maycoders?

What kind of team is Maycoders?

"Hello, we're Team Maycoders, working on the K-Beauty Trade/Manufacturing DX (Digital Transformation)!"”

“Trade…? DX….. what?”

Just by looking at the introduction, it seems like you're doing something plausible with a lot of cool words, but the question, "So what company?" is still the most frequently heard word.

What does Team Maycoders do?

What do we want to change?

Cross the border by Code

Every article that introduces Maycoders begins with the phrase below.

‘People who cross the border by code’

The story of the start-up of Maycoders, where two computer engineering founders and a CSO who was at the center of the traditional trade called Samsung C&T met and started their current business, can be seen a lot in your other writings.This time, I'd like to talk a little bit more about what "people who cross the border by code" means from the perspective of the current Maycoders.

Until 2021, it was in Southeast Asia that Maycoders crossed the border. The Philippines, which had the largest number of followers or buyers among Southeast Asia, was the center.

However, as of 2023, the border crossing of the Maycoders has not only included the Philippines, but also Southeast Asia, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand, and has expanded rapidly beyond North America.

Maycoders is a team that is striving to cross more borders through the various products, and contents covered in K-Culture.

So, what does it mean to cross the border ‘by code’, not something else?

Maycoders does not want to supply goods, products, or content simply in a traditional way to secure a large volume of trading. Our team's most important mission is to digitally transform all cross-border (global e-commerce) transactions through Maycoders, to find, design, and realize a way for both suppliers and consumers to share more value.

To do this, the Sales and Dev. teams are building a very high level of teamwork. In a way, maintaining an organic relationship between the Sales and Dev. teams may seem unfamiliar to other teams, but rather than making great developments that are far from Sales, we focus on the actual form of transactions with buyers and make essential developments for commerce.

plus, K-Beauty

A few days ago, I quietly handed out hand mirrors to my team members. At the time, I said this. 

"Still, we are a team that makes K-Beauty service, so let's not be too far away from Beauty..."

Perhaps because of founders with computer science keywords or trade expert keywords (?) Maycoders's talent award, it seems that the keyword "person close to Beauty" or "person who loves Beauty" has never been included. It's the same now.

Nevertheless, Team Maycoders deals with the Beauty keyword because it's already a very big market, and it's still a growing market. With the full digital transformation of commerce as the team's mission, we believe that the most basic thing to become a successful e-commerce player is a "big enough market."

The global beauty market, which currently stands at $532 billion, is expected to expand* to $800 billion by 2025. It's already said to be a big market for Red Ocean, but it's still growing, and that means that the space for commerce continues to grow. On top of that, the activity of exports beyond domestic demand shown by the Beauty category is bound to be very attractive to Maycoders.

Team Maycoders' final destination is not 'End of K-Beauty Crossboarding'. Rather, the beginning of our team will be the end of K-Beauty crossboarding. With categories linked to Beauty, all keywords in the K-Culture category, such as Fashion and Health, are likely to be targets for cross-boarders of the Maycoders' style.

To sum up, team Maycoders is carrying out a mission to digitally transform traditional trade deals and connect K-Culture, centered on K-Beauty, with the latest technologies to the global market.

Along with K-Culture, which continues to grow, team Maycoders continues to grow. Thanks to this, 2022 was a year of dynamic growth that was memorable for us.

In 2023, the official version of MAYK, the main product of Maycoders, is planned to be launched beyond many adversity. I think 2023 will be a year when all the team members who are ready to run with the launch of the official version of MAYK are rushing toward their goals.
