50 Years of Marc o'polo

The Marc o'polo success story started in 1967 with

two Swedes, an American, a strawberry on an advertising

poster, and an O'. When Rolf Lind, Gote Huss, and

Jerry O. Sheets started Marc o'polo 50 years ago, they

wanted to conquer the fashion world with natural fabrics

and products that came from Asia to Europe. While the

fashion industry was still very big on synthetic fabrics in

the 1960s, the three co-founders laid the foundation for

an emphasis on the natural materials that the shape

brand to this day, not letting anything derail their philosophy.

And success proved them right, especially under the

leadership of today's owner Werner Bock?their friend

business partner, and loyal companion from the very first

days on.
