WOOD MOOD is a manufacturer of unique patented candles and aesthetic home decor. Our products are standout as both business and personal gifts that can be easily customized. Production takes place at family owned studio with adhering to high-quality standards and the respect for people, environment and society
Pre-war situation
WOOD MOOD was established in 2019 as a family-owned workshop and by early 2022, we had proudly become a small but recognized brand in Ukraine. We were honored to be named one of the top 100 most recognizable small businesses in Ukraine by NV (New Time) business magazine, which serves as a testament to our commitment to quality and innovation
Effect of the war
Our production was divided into two parts: a woodworking workshop in the Kharkiv region and a candle studio in Hostomel. Unfortunately, both were situated in areas affected by war and occupation. Consequently, our candle studio fell victim to theft, with all stock and equipment stolen, while the wooden workshop was entirely lost. This setback required us to restart from this point
Resulting challenges
The Ukrainian market, where we previously held a significant share of sales, has experienced a decline. As a result, we are actively exploring new opportunities abroad. Our expertise extends across B2C, B2B, and HoReCa, specializing in private label collections. We are currently seeking potential buyers from gift shops, home decor/gift distributors, resort hotels & SPAs, yoga studios, local customers, and florist studios
The sought-for solution
We are looking for export and growth opportunities. We strongly believe that our sustainable and high-quality goods fit the Dutch market, but we need mentoring to understand how to enter it and work there
