Textile printing & embroidery

Open

Waldin R.

Waldin is 31 years old, married and the father of 2 children. After studying marketing, he gained his first professional experience in sales at an insurance company. There he learned how to present himself confidently in sales. He later gave dance lessons and met his current wife. In 2019, Waldin decided to close the dance school so that he could spend more time with his family. Together, they took advantage of Maria's experience in the promotional products sector, rented a large premises and started producing printed textiles.

Initially, they ran their business as a couple, supported by one employee on a rented embroidery machine. The company grew rapidly thanks to continuous demand and skillful collaboration with other producers. Waldin and Maria decided to sell a car to finance their first own machine. With further self-generated capital, modern machines for sublimation, screen printing, textile production and laser engraving followed in order to better control quality and delivery times.

Project description

Waldin is known for surprising the market with innovative products, often 1 to 2 years before the competition makes similar offers. His approach: to offer customers not just products, but individual solutions. However, rapid growth also brought challenges. Waldin turned to BPN to optimize his financial processes. With the tools they provided, he gained complete transparency over costs, margins and profitability for the first time.

His next goal is to win major international customers, export to the USA and base his own company management even more on professional, fact-based decisions rather than emotions.
