The Finnish manufacturer of traditional, thick, high quality wool socks is looking for growth outside the domestic market and is therefore seeking distributors, commercial agents, dealers and/or retail chains abroad.
The company is family owned and continues the tradition of the Finnish wool sock industry. In the production the company combines traditional industrial knitting machines with precise handicraft. The company values employees highly, and strives to maintain balanced and stress-free work environment. The owner believes this to be the most important step in producing well-fitting, extremely durable and comfortable wool socks.
Socks are for work, leisure or outdoor activities and they are available in unisex sizes from S to XXXL or 37-55 and in 9 colours. Both regular and long socks are for sale in traditional pattern.
The company manufacturers also private labels with customized colours provided the volume is reasonable.
The partner should be active in work wear, profile, leisure or outdoor cloth business. Preferred partners would be distributors, retailer chains, dealers or purchase organizations.
