The beginning
Started as Extended Traders (the sister company from Blanket Bay Outdoor) in the year 1994 with its founder Edwin van der Donk. We began our journey building client base in Europe, and manufacturing network in Eastern Europe and Asia. Over the years, we set up private owned factories and subsidiaries to handle different aspects of the apparel industry.
Our management team exists out of professionals who have been in the industry for more than 20 years. With their big and varied experience, we are able to identify the needs of our business partners and accommodate them expertly.
In addition, with more than 150 employees, which include teams of merchandisers, quality controllers, and our own factory workers, we provide dedicated and personalized services. We continue to employ experienced and fresh potentials to complement and enhance our services.
Our extensive knowledge in world commerce ensures our business partners’ expectations are met and even exceeded. Our long-term partnerships with prestigious clients from A Brands and the best European retailers bear witness to this. Most of our clients have chosen and worked with us for many years.
We have undertaken a pro-active approach by becoming BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative) member to promote code of conduct compliance. We are the first Dutch company to give its fullest commitment to implement the standard, endorsing labor rights and working conditions in Eastern European Countries. We are moving towards the direction to ensure that all products we commission are manufactured under lawful, humane and ethical conditions.
As a Corporate Member of BSCI, we share the mission to improve working conditions in our supply chain.
