1. Duca Del Cosma
Website: https://ducadelcosma.nl/
Established: 2004
Quality and innovation are at the heart of the, in 2004 founded by fashion students at renowned schools in Italy and Germany, Duca del Cosma brand. In the years following its establishment, they have grown into a successful international company meeting the needs of golfers of all levels.
Duca del Cosma has a track record to show for the quality of their products, given that they have won multiple prestigious awards for their designs and innovation. In 2006 they even managed to introduce the first spikeless shoe in the golfing world.
It's really amazing to see a company with as clear of a niche as they have, really aim to deliver as much value as possible to their target group. From offering high quality accessories to shoewear that’s not limited to the golf court.
2. YAYA Shop
Website: https://yaya.nl/
Established: 1992
YAYA truly is a fashion and home brand with strong values. No metropolitan headquarters for them, but don’t let that deceive you.
Over the years they have managed to build a brand with more than 2700 outlets all over the world, all of that from their office in a small village close to Amsterdam.
The lifestyle brand that sells comfortable and feminine collections that are meant to be loved multiple seasons long is very aware of their power to make an impact. Both their impact on the environment and their responsibility to ensure proper working conditions in the factories that manufacture the items.
YAYA makes a great effort to act according to its values without actively promoting it in marketing activities. Not because they don’t find it important, but because they believe that doing good should be the norm.
3. Veloretti
Website: https://www.veloretti.com
Established: 2012
Nearly everyone in the Netherlands commutes by bike and has been doing so from a very young age, most likely owning a couple of bikes along the way.
Veloretti has pivoted when it comes to innovating within the Dutch (e)bike market by focusing on a direct to consumer distribution method.
The design of Velotti’s bikes is extremely well thought through and is recognizable by its minimalistic and functional look and feel.
By designing all their (e)bikes in Amsterdam and producing them in Europe they ensure the highest quality. Their products are made to withstand the test of time.
With a wide product range from clean city bikes to e-bikes and bikes for children, Velotti has revolutionized the Dutch bike market which is an inspiration to other companies entering a well established market.
4. Stoov
Website: https://stoov.com/
Established: 2014
With their headquarters in Utrecht, Stoov produces heating pillows and blankets made in an innovative and sustainable way.
The idea of efficient heating all started during the cold winter days. Why would people use a heater that slowly heats up your entire house when really, you need something to keep your body warm? Directly, without the wasted heat.
Especially on those cold winter days, one of the best feelings is to feel cozy and warm. Stoov not only came up with a solution to solve this problem for us humans, but also taking into account the environmental impact traditional heating has.
By using Stoov’s infrared wireless heating products you’re warming yourself but not the planet. If that’s not an impactful Shopify store, we don’t know what is.
5. 10Days
Website: https://www.10dayslifestyle.nl/
Established: 2007
Freedom, independence, authenticity and being the best version of yourself are at the heart of the 10Days brand. Founded in Amsterdam, the fashion label believes that respect for the planet, its people and animals is essential. This is something that is recognizable in their products.
Instead of following all the latest fashion trends, 10 Days focusses on timeless designs that can be worn throughout multiple seasons. Designs that are made to be worn comfortably in which quality and sustainability are key factors.
In order to ensure the quality of their products, the vast majority of the products are manufactured in Europe, using fabrics that are made to last.
In the saturated market that is the fashion industry, it can be hard to stand out from the rest based on your values but 10Days is doing a great job at that in our opinion.
