A VERY WARM WELCOME TO FREITAG
Since September 1st 2017, sim has the great pleasure to host the Brand Ambassador to China of FREITAG Lab AG, Ms Zoi Fan.
With their innovation, the FREITAG brothers inadvertently triggered a seismic event in the world of bag making. Its tremors have since made themselves felt in Zurich and the cities of Europe and spread all the way to Asia, making FREITAG the unofficial outfitter of all urban, bike-riding individualists.
The first F13 TOP CAT messenger bag has since spawned a range of over 70 different models designed to carry everything you can carry: from smartphone and laptop sleeves via shoppers and handbags to backpacks in various sizes, as well as the Haute Maroquinerie styles made from vintage truck tarps that has struck fear into the heart of the calf- and crocodile-recycling bag industry.
Today the products are available in 16 F-STORES as well as at over 450 resellers around the world. In the FREITAG Online Store there’s an extensive choice of over 5000 unique products. FREITAG has been headquartered at the Nœrd industrial complex in Zurich-Oerlikon since 2011. This is where the truck tarps we collect are taken apart, washed and cut up. FREITAG still belongs to the two Freitag brothers, and, as Creative Directors, they still oversee each new model through to series production. Click here for some FREITAG Stories.
In 2014, they gave themselves a new raw material to play with: F-ABRIC. Their rugged, completely compostable textiles are based on bast fibers that are produced using a minimum of resources within a 2500-kilometer radius of headquarters. F-ABRIC thus more than lives up to the FREITAG philosophy: We think and act in cycles.
We at sim are delighted to become part of the FREITAG China venture and continue to improve our offer to accommodate Swiss Brands and Businesses in China as to support them with top office space in the heart of Shanghai, all necessary facilities and our entire range of services. Let us know if you would like to inquire more.
