Connecting brands with Boutique Manufacturing in the Heart of Europe.
From small family-run workshops to mid-sized factories, carefully selected for their quality, attention to detail, ethics and their ability to offer no-minimum-order manufacturing at a fair price.
Tradition
Drawing upon a long tradition of agriculture, forestry and crafts, our manufacturers are longstanding specialist producers within the traditional industries such as Textiles and Clothing, Paper, Wood and Food Industries.
Sustainability
Promoting responsible sourcing and production with inbuilt sustainability. On the issue of environmental responsibility, Slovenia’s environmental legislation is one of the most comprehensive and rigorously enforced in Europe.
Social Responsibility
All of our manufacturing partners are ethical employers, respecting the workers statutory rights and benefits including and paid overtime, paid one year maternity leave and paternity leave, sick leave, paid annual holiday of minimum 18 days, annual holiday allowance, paid travel and lunch expenses.
Why Slovenia?
Slovenia is one of the few remaining EU countries with a longstanding and uninterrupted tradition of industry and manufacturing going back to the 18th century. It also helps that Slovenia is so very small you could easily do a factory visit or two in the morning, then hop for a dip in the Adriatic sea or a short hike up the Julian Alps in the afternoon! Sounds good?
