About us.
Our one-line pitch is…
We sell the ultimate business socks for men and we deliver them regularly to your home.
The core of our team…
Ivan is a marketing guy, Victor – a decision making guru, Boris – a finance and operations exec, Ivaylo – the special situations guy and Rumen and Stani are our two hardcore developers. We are spread across three different countries.
Our office in looks like…
the sock haven. We have socks for every day, socks for going out, cotton socks, wool socks…it’s a bit like the shrimp scene from Forrest Gump 🙂
The person that inspires us most…
Elon Musk because he wants to take humans to Mars and we want to send socks to the first Martians…we are not called The Socks Intergalactical for nothing!
About our journey so far.
Before we started we were…
The members of the core team have been entrepreneurs for years and have worked on digital marketing, product management, construction and design, game development, investment banking and online projects.
We received our initial capital through…
We self-funded our development since the start. So, we managed to set up companies in Bulgaria and the UK, warehouse and logistics infrastructure in the UK, to design and order thousands of socks from Turkey, our own design packaging and initial marketing efforts.
Our most difficult time so far was…
learning all about socks, textiles and fashion. We did not have any experience but after two trips to Turkey and meetings with six factories, we feel we have gained a detailed understanding about making great socks.
About little steps and big dreams.
In five years we want to be the sock suppliers to the ISS staff.
Our next target is…
to open an awesome stand in the duty free at an international airport, raise a seed financing round and scale sales.
If you say investment we say…
sure, and you will see us in every home inEurope.
The one thing, we couldn’t go on without is…
our kids and dogs.
Our current development state is…
Scale
In five years we want to be…
