Ever since entering the clothing industry in 2005, my linchpin has been a sustainably tailored apparel. After a triumphant restructuring of one of the biggest plants manufacturing men's clothing in Poland in the early 2000s, I began developing my own brand. When I invest, I opt for business projects with a sustainable model as well.
Cafardini is a brand created from scratch to meet the needs of Polish clientele for a product tailored to their superior expectations. The brand pays tribute to timeless elegance and celebrates the freedom of choice. It further boosts our clientele’s unique experience and enables the creative process that unleashes the possibility of rolling out the attire that suits them on every occasion. Cafardini clothing is sewn in Poland from custom fabrics made in Italy and Great Britain. In 2018, Cafardini was distinguished by the Dutch magazine LXRY as one of the few brands worth observing alongside such legends as Kiton, Gieves&Hawks, or Zegna. That has been a noteworthy accomplishment and a true privilege.
In 2020, the brand was awarded a Forbes Diamond Award for its business presence in Poland.
A keen advocate of building a strong culture in organizations. A member of the Family Business Network.
