There is much excitement at Rackety's HQ this week, we are getting ready to go international with a new business in Scandinavia. Last Summer we were contacted by a young couple from Norway who had bought some of our clothing for their daughter Mari. They were so pleased with the quality and design of the products and impressed by how much they helped with their daughter, that they decided it may work to sell them in Scandinavia so they could help other families.
Together we have re developed the website, translating it into Norwegian, Swedish and Finish, and changing it so that Hanne and Thomas can adapt it to suit their customers. It is clear to us that the problem of keeping warm dry and comfortable in a wheelchair, or keeping clean and having the nappies where they need to be are the same all over the world. Although we have already sent our products to over 25 countries, we are unable to offer the same level of service overseas and it will be much better for the customers to have a local postal delivery and most important of all, an experienced understanding person to call for help.
We wish them the absolute best with their new venture and are confident that Hanne and Thomas will continue to maintain the vibrancy and spirit of Rackety's into Scandinavia. They have 6 months of snow every year so we hope to help keep a lot of wheelchair users warm!
You can see how cute and warm Mari is in the snow!
