Richard den Hollander, CEO of Joolz

  • Joolz is the fastest-growing stroller brand in the world: Joolz sells premium strollers in 50 countries and has been growing by 24 per cent a year since 2020. The company continually invests in innovation and product development, such as the revolutionary Joolz Aer buggy.12
  • Joolz uses data analytics and influencers to capture new markets: Joolz researches the potential of new countries based on birth rates, competition and consumer preferences. The company works with independent retailers, influencers and social media platforms to increase its visibility and brand value. One example is its partnership with Cristiano Ronaldo, who was given a Joolz Geo and caused a huge spike in sales.34
  • Joolz wants more than just generate revenue: it wants to make an impact: Joolz feels the responsibility to leave the world a better place. The company does so with initiatives such as the creation of birth forests, reusable packaging and more sustainable materials and products. The company will also partner with a company that has experience in creating ultimate purpose, such as Dopper and Tony's Chocolonely.56
