et bredt og trendorienteret farvespekter, herunder mange støvede sommer-pasteller S B KEY WORDS S/S 20 FRA BIANCO Generelt en fashionorienteret kollektion med / bæredygtighed og recy- cling indarbejdes, hvor det er muligt – blandt andet i en ny serie sneakers / gul i flere nuancer fortsætter / snake- og croco-mønstre i forskellige farver / chunky sandaler og plateau-såler Among the obvious advantages is the fact that Cashott is well po- sitioned in markets such as Germany, Italy and the Netherlands, where the company has established agencies, something Bianco should enjoy the benefits of. On the other hand, Cashott will gain access to sell its products in Bianco’s retail store chain, and Bianco’s agent in Finland will now also represent Cashott in Finland, a new market for the company from Lunderskov. - Bianco and Cashott are a great match because the two companies have experience in different areas and are good at different things. For instance, Bianco’s design will gain from Cashott’s knowledge of comfort, quality, materials, and sourcing, and I have a clear plan to prioritize and strengthen those parameters. The innovative and highly experimental side of Bianco’s design, on the other hand, will be toned down, and the collection structure will be focused on two main collections supplemented by 3-4 on-going series to ensure a constant flow of new items to stores, ends Jens Schøtt. SUMMARY In April, managing director of Cashott Jens Schøtt also became co- owner and managing director of Bianco. Bianco is both a whole- sale business and a retail chain with its own stores in Denmark and Norway. The company announced that its new CEO had been hired from a competitor, which is not in itself particularly unusual. What is unusual, though, is that it was also announced that he would remain as CEO of Cashott. - This decision was of course made with in order to take advantage of certain synergies, and the Bestseller concern, which co-owns Bi- anco with me, has also invested in Cashott. The plan is to let the two brands keep their own unique profile and design DNA, says Jens Schøtt. CASHOTT Sneakers med kraftig sål A til gengæld nedtones, og kollektionsstrukturen fokuseres på to ho- vedkollektioner suppleret med 3-4 aktuelle serier, der skal sikre, at nyhederne tilflyder butikkerne i et konstant flow.
