Our Brand Journey
I was walking along the street of Rottenburg, Germany and saw a lady pushing a stroller wagon with her 2 kids sitting in it, and slowly approaching towards the direction I was standing. We strike up a conversation and later she invited me to her home.
This was my first time in a cozy German cottage and I like the medieval ambience. She is a single mum in her forties with her twins, a boy & a girl. When I looked at her son, his unique big pair of blue eyes emits a special affection which I couldn’t describe in words. His smile is like a greatest thing I ever seen, which inside me, I felt blissfulness and abundance. I can sense the strong aura which I had lost in myself for quite some time.
She let me carry him, and I could just feel an instant connection with him. After putting him down, we continue to have a chat and heard her life story. She is a strong woman selling baby product that includes baby wagon and stroller. I was amazed by her entrepreneurial journey as I am at a crossroad feeling lost at that moment while having a 4-month pregnancy.
She gave me a very important advice in life which is to be true to yourself in anything you do in life. That’s is also her business philosophy which helped her garnered a huge strong fan base that gives her a chance to provide food on the table for her two kids by her own.
”To be true to yourself, is to be true to others” There should be no compromise on product quality & you must provide only the BEST for your love ones.
She introduced me to her team of designer & engineer, and I was happy to be part of her company for a short stint. She shown me the light in my darkest period, and I dedicate her son, Rykee as the brand of our in-house product towards embarking a journey of truthfulness.
