“We like to bring the legacy of Madam Leonor to the next level. Their products are well-accepted in Indonesia,” says Susilo in an interview. For Modequillo, their partnership with PT. Amosys is a good avenue to expand their market and let their products be known to the other parts of the world as well. “We choose PT. Amosys because they are capable and they are the biggest distributor in Indonesia. We believe that this partnership is a better opportunity for RDL to explore and penetrate the whole Indonesia and in the world, hopefully,” Modequillo said.

The RDL Sales and Marketing Manager added that since last year, 70 percent of their products are distributed on the international market while 30 percent are widely-distributed within their local distributors.
