CGETC

What CGETC does

CGETC Inc. is a US-headquartered, private e-commerce infrastructure company that serves Korean and international consumer brands seeking to enter or scale in the US market. Founded in 2003 and based in City of Industry, California, the company operates as an Importer of Record (IOR), customs broker, licensed US Agent for FDA filings, multi-channel marketplace operator, and third- and fourth-party logistics provider. CGETC serves over 800 partner brands, with K-Beauty, personal care, food, health, and general merchandise brands as its primary customer base, and supports them across Amazon, Walmart, TikTok Shop, SHEIN, Temu, Costco, Walgreens, and Shopify channels.

The company's core service stack consists of 4PL Fulfillment Management, E-Commerce Operation (listing optimization, PPC, influencer and affiliate marketing), 3PL Logistics (ocean freight from Busan to Los Angeles, customs clearance, micro-warehousing, pick-and-pack, last-mile coordination), the proprietary Atlas ERP System, B2B Distribution Network access, and FDA Establishment Registration (cosmetics, food, OTC, 510(k) medical devices). The Atlas System is CGETC's custom-built ERP that provides real-time inventory visibility, order management, shipping rate optimization, freight tracking, and multi-channel integration with Shopify and Amazon FBM, and serves as the operational backbone across service lines. Operations span four global hubs (Los Angeles, Atlanta, Seoul, Manila), with long-standing carrier partnerships with UPS, FedEx, and USPS and government-agency ties to KOTRA and the Busan Economic Promotion Agency.

CGETC generates revenue across five distinct streams: 3PL logistics billed per CBM and per delivered unit, 4PL fulfillment management as a bundled managed service, FDA and regulatory services as professional fees, B2B distribution as transaction fees on retailer orders, and e-commerce operation and marketing services on a professional-services basis. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with monthly billing for logistics services. In June 2026, Kiuda Group acquired a majority stake in CGETC as its first acquisition, with Kiuda founder Ky Ma assuming the CEO role while founder David Byun remained as president; Kiuda has signaled plans to add forecasting, trend-analysis, and localized marketing capabilities under a long-term evergreen-fund investment approach.
