Since April 2020, Siklus has operated in the Greater Jakarta area and already impacted 20,000 customers. However, Siklus must change its new business model due to regulation from the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM) that warned the company not to sell personal care who come in direct contact with skin.
