A small company spoils with unusual ideas soul and body of its customers.
Exactly ten years ago Martina Kabitzsch founded her company. But she is still surprised by her success. ”Actually, I wanted to pursue my ideas as a hobby”, the energetic woman looks back.How it began
At a time over ten years ago she developed four special liqueurs of berries and blossoms and offered them for sale. She met the taste of the people. Since that, Martina Kabitzsch has successfully developed her company Manufaktur von Blythen in Schoeneiche near Berlin. In 2004 she moved with her company to the old post office of Schoeneiche. There she furnished a nice store and her production rooms. Together with two firmly hired employees and some temporary help Martina Kabitzsch produces her lusciousness there.
Her bestsellers: Care products and fragrant inks
Liqueurs still belong to her product range. But now she also offers other culinary and sensuous lusciousness made out of blossoms. Care products and fragrant inks are bought from her customers with pleasure. Soon after, her business success was joined with social recognition. In 2005 the Manufaktur von Blythen was awarded with the Future Prize East Brandenburg by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Frankfurt (Oder) and the local newspaper. “This price is a confirmation and remuneration for what I have performed and built up”, says Martina Kabitzsch proudly.
Book about cooking with blossoms
From Schoeneiche hotels and delicatessen stores as well as many Internet customers in the whole country are supplied with her products. There Martina Kabitzsch also thinks about the future of her small company with its special products. She has many ideas and still some dreams. “Finally, my book about cooking with blossoms and special herbs should be finished this year”, she said.
A look in the future
In summer she will celebrate the ten-year-anniversary of her company with her customers. In addition, a new premium line with new products should come soon. Martina Kabitzsch does not fear new challenges. “Untill now we have accomplished everything and we will afford it in future too.”
