In 2013, the “Okno vo Dvor” project became the first store of clothing, footwear, and accessories made exclusively in Ukraine. Currently, the store has more than 200 #madeinUkraine brands, gathered under one roof. “We have been on the market since August 2013. At the time, we were the first faced with misunderstanding and lack of faith in what we were doing. The question we got from one of the partners best illustrates those times: “Are you sure someone needs it?” We decided to close the doors of the business immediately after the quarantine was announced. “It was tough and scary, but there was an understanding that it’s necessary, it’s safer for everyone.” The most valuable thing that the team tries to keep is the customers because there is no business without them. The option to close the business forever is not a story about Okno vo Dvor Concept Store. Our company is a family business, and we do everything possible to preserve and develop it after the end of quarantine. We are promoting Ukrainian, so the closure will put our partners under attack. Fight and win!
