Our new office in Poland opens

Following rapid growth in Poland, we are proud to announce the opening of our dedicated Polish office in the beautiful city of Wroclaw.

Erve Europe’s products featuring TV, film and cartoon heroes have proved popular in the Polish market – and rapid growth there has created the opportunity for a dedicated office in Poland as the natural next step in Erve Europe’s expansion into Central and Eastern Europe (CEE).

Piotr Bielec heads up the Wroclaw office as Polish Sales Manager, working to grow the presence of Erve products in CEE. Piotr works closely with the Erve Europe sales team at the company’s head office in Brussels, as well as with Erve’s global design team and the Beconnected colleagues based in China, Bangladesh, India, Russia and Ethiopia.

Piotr, who brings with him a wealth of experience in the textile business, joined Erve in August 2020. He is focussed on meeting the growing demand for licensed and branded products in CEE, and getting more private label products into stores.

Piotr:

I am very thrilled to work for a company with so much experience.

Erve Europe is a well-known licensed products supplier with a reliable and long-term status, while Beconnected supplies private label products with lots of knowledge and expertise. That’s where we connect very well.

Although we are experiencing challenging times in the retail landscape, the pandemic has had no effect on the opening of the office.

The new virtual way of working made it easier to liaise with the other colleagues within the Erve Group. And it’s beneficial for our CEE customers to have a dedicated Polish commercial contact.

Thanks to Erve Europe’s new foothold in Poland, CEE customers can expect to see many more products from the Erve Group available soon in their region.
