Bruno Bear
Small Business Owner in Esslingen am Neckar, Deutschland
In 1994, I quit my job as "Export Manager" for an international company, in order to start a business, which I had discovered in the UK: I opened a "Teddy Bear Shop" in Esslingen, near Stuttgart, Germany.
Very soon, I had the pleasure to welcome international collectors. Today, I serve customers from all over the world - in my shop and by mail order. Packing parcels, and displaying over 1,000 different Teddy Bears, Soft Toys, plus a little selection of fine wines and chocolate, is a challenge on 30 square meters - but it is cozy!
