Early Career
(2015–2020)
Andrzej began his career in cosmetics manufacturing in 2015, working directly at a private label cosmetics factory. He started as an export manager, later moved into e-commerce, and eventually worked closely with private label clients—handling inquiries, preparing quotations, and coordinating production processes.
During this time, he identified a recurring problem: many founders had strong product ideas but lacked knowledge about costs, documentation, logistics, and realistic production timelines. In addition, clients often needed multiple product categories that a single factory could not deliver.
Over six years, Andrzej worked on hundreds of projects—from early-stage startups launching their first product to established beauty brands generating millions in annual revenue and selling through major retail chains such as Rossmann.

Key Observation (2020)
By 2020, Andrzej observed a clear market shift: a growing number of influencers wanted to launch their own beauty brands, but traditional manufacturers were not equipped to support them.
Influencers needed:
- Smaller production runs (2,000–3,000 units)
- Faster timelines (4–6 months instead of 12–18)
- Strategic guidance on product selection and pricing
- Support with formulas, regulations, and compliance
Manufacturers expected:
- High minimum order quantities (5,000–10,000 units)
- Long development cycles (9–12 months)
- Technically experienced clients
- Traditional retail-focused distribution models
This mismatch created frustration on both sides and revealed a clear gap in the market.
