Did you know…

• HANDIEU was created by Aga Marecka, a Polish woman who lives in Belgium close to Luxembourg boarder where she has established the company.
• She has been working on it for past year to make it a social concept!
• One of her main goals is to unite Europe around handicrafts and small businesses.
• As a fresh mother, she finds a lot of inspiration from motherhood for running a business with a patience, smile, focus on positive and learning from mistakes – trying some steps, maybe falling but getting up and trying again!
• Last two years she was unemployed – first due to health problems, then pregnant. But she has spent this time to study more, e.g. French, programming and business development so one day she can start something herself. That is why one of the key values of HANDIEU is constant learning and improvement!
• She has started reaching handcrafters by opening a Facebook group and giving some tips about business, marketing and understanding a customer.
• Then she started the blog handmade-in-europe.com and this year her first eBook for handcrafters was launched!
• She looks at people with empathy because as she says, she can associate with many people’s struggles. The reflection of it are her concept videos that you can watch here.
• And even if the things are not going as we would like to, some of them are beyond our control, she tries to stay optimistic, keep on going and do not give up her dreams about a better future for Europeans and her daughter!
