How are you planning to scale out production of these sunglasses? Let's say you get picked up by some media and the interest explodes and all the sudden you get orders of 10k pairs (maybe you go on Shark Tank in the US for example). Based on some guess work you probably sold about 1700 - 2500 pairs to date so there is probably no issue so far in meeting the demand. I love hand-made products, but since you are talking about becoming a billion dollar company, I'm just wondering what's the plan to get there.

Jack,

Excellent question. Response below:

We love handmade products, as well -- however, it has been our top priority to meet the anticipated demands of growth, while maintaining superior quality and the handmade nature of our products.

Currently, our manufacturing facility in Greece can produce upwards of 30k units per month, no problem.

As we continue to scale, we will continue to work closely with our family owned manufacturers in Greece and upgrade capabilities as needed. Currently, our manufacturers produce their own collections, and are the largest eyewear producers/distributors in Greece. Producing over 250k units per year.

Thus, we have no concern with our immediate economics of scale.

As things progress, and should our demand exceed our capabilities, we will invest in other manufacturers that meet our strict quality/pricing standards.

Thank you for your interest and inquiry.

Yours in service,

Aristotle
