A year ago we started our concrete production. We made lots of stuff to feel material, to try its possibilities. Also we wanted to show our products to possible customers. Here in Ukraine concrete is not popular for now. It has to pass some time to make ukrainians be ready for trending products. And we love concrete so much so decided to try it in the same moment.

An easiest way is to show product was a gift shop, where we've been stand some of our stuff. The complexity was in type of possible-to-sell goods: small souvenirs that can be gifted to a Birhtday or professional holiday like Accountant Day or so. A manager (she was an owner also) wanted to get 100% profit. It means that our price will be enlarged twice to be sell in their shop.

Of course we made some market research, we saw the price on Etsy and everywhere on web where we can buy concrete stuff before we came into the gift shop. And their proposal was not so appealing. But we needed to know our local market, to know is it possible to sell concrete goods in Ukraine. So, we said "Ok, lets try!"

That was the last day when we spoke to the manager. She said that they will let us know when something will be selled.

A year have pass. Any calls, any news.
Few days ago in the evening we talked about our new projects, new plans, new molds that we have to make. And we're remembered, that some of our products, that we can sale in an Internet market place skrynya.ua, are still in that gift shop.

Next day (don't put off what concerns you personally, especially money, haha) we've come to the gift shop to take away our products. The manager talked by phone with her friend and didn't even thought to pick it off. Ok, this is our local managing, not so professional. When we asked about our stuff, she said that our products are in the other shop, not here. "And, by the way, we're selled something, like pots",- she remembered. But didn't call. "Why?" you can ask as we did. No answer, only smile. "We can bring the goods probably tomorrow, and you better come a day after", - she said.

Today is that "right" day to take our stuff out of that shop. We finally got the goods and now we are so happy to finish this our adventure with local gift shop. Now we're beginning new projects, providing and testing new ideas and our new home on web.
