Poland low on national brand chart

let's see.....

before i moved to poland, i knew of Zywiec and Belvedere. i think that's it.

Before I had been there: Lech Walęsa; coal; cold winters & Copernicus.

That's it.

: )

Only polish workers have a brand name.

i didn't even know who that was.

Kind of a hero in Ireland among the hard left revolutionary types.

Would have thought he was pretty much known world wide during the whole Solidarity thing though?

Yes. I watch "Firma II. Pierwszy million" and I'm suprised how many good companies we have. It's all about being very deep inside some line of business to know that.

I've also read some article about guy who invented and make lots of patents in medical equipment and his company make it best in the world. I can't find this article but it was really intresting and showing that Polak jednak potrafi.


No kidding


and it follows this model. That's why you have never heard about any polish company. We don't make chairs but we make springs for seats of these chairs. It would be insane to make another brand of cars or electronics when there are loads of companies who produce it and have experience. You have to find a niche. Making a niche business is not so spectacular like producing main stream products. Who cares that maybe some polish company makes the best sails for bouts? That's the problem... but, hey who said that we have to be spectacular and compete with Sony? ;)
