Why Supporting Luxury Independent Brands Matters! In a world dominated by mass production, supporting luxury independent brands has become more meaningful than ever. Brands like Capra NV, a British luxury brand that creates exquisite writing instruments and unique cufflinks, embody the artistry and craftsmanship often lost in large-scale manufacturing. Unlike larger companies that prioritise volume, Capra NV focuses on quality, sourcing high-grade materials from the world of motor racing to infuse each piece with a unique story and unmatched durability. Capra NV’s collections are an homage to British craftsmanship and innovation. Their writing instruments and cufflinks are not only visually stunning but engineered with materials designed for resilience—such as carbon fibre and exotic materials. These luxurious items aren’t just accessories; they are heirlooms, designed to last and crafted with precision. By supporting independent brands like Capra NV, you invest in artisanship, sustainability, and exclusivity. Each piece is meticulously crafted, making it a rarity in today’s fast-paced, disposable culture. Choosing Capra NV is a commitment to quality and individuality, helping keep the legacy of fine British craftsmanship alive. For those who appreciate the extraordinary, Capra NV offers a chance to own a piece of luxury that stands apart from the ordinary. Explore more at www.capranv.com.

Week-end #mustread : Gimv #Consumer company Grandeco Wallfashion Group featured in De Tijd today. Article in Dutch, but herewith some key quotes: "By acquiring Rasch in Germany, West Flanders-based The Wallfashion House became one of the largest producers of wallpaper in the world. In a market shrinking 4 percent every year, the group managed to grow by 4 percent. Thanks to digital printing techniques, more efficient production than Germans, pre-glued wallpaper and the accent wall trend." "The acquisition made The Wallfashion House larger than its direct competitor, the also German A.S. Création. 'It had been our dream for years to take over Rasch, but not just because we would be the biggest. Germany has always been a difficult market because of the strong competition. Rasch is also a strong brand in German-speaking countries partly because of the name of the family, which still holds 25 percent in the company after the acquisition.'" "The acquisitions somewhat camouflage the fact that the Tielt-based company also continues to record organic growth. 'About 3 to 4 percent per year,' Patrick Molemans says. 'We owe that to a number of assets. Ten years ago, we deliberately switched the rifle from shoulder - forget it consumers still wallpaper their entire house, as they did until the 1980s. As a brand new CEO, I had to move heaven and earth to convince people of the concept of accent walls. I came from paint manufacturer Akzo Nobel, where that trend had been around for some time.'" 'Now we sell a lot less volume, but we managed to keep our revenues stable because of higher added value: more beautiful designs, better quality and innovations, such as virus- and bacteria-killing wallpaper for nurseries, schools and medical waiting rooms, or pre-glued wallpaper, which you only have to wet before use." #BuildingLeadingCompanies Koen Bouckaert David De Peuter Laurens Boriale, CFA Tom Van de Voorde Charlotte Vanden Daele (she/her) https://lnkd.in/eWSXyMhh
