ANTON’S STORY
Having worked all my life in the world of fashion, in 1994 I formed the
consultancy with the aim of helping brands to find agents – at that time
most of my colleagues thought I was mad and would never make any
money – for the first six months they were right – however since then
the consultancy has grown from me working on my own with some
handwritten notes of agents to a highly motivated young team of fashion,
research and social media experts that allow us to locate agents in most
of the key trading countries in the world.
For the first 20 years we only worked with fashion clothing, shoes, bags,
accessories and jewellery for men, women and kids, but for the last five
years we have broadened our reach and, of course, our database so that
we now help home and gift and homeware brands, an area of growing
importance.
It seems incredible that after 25 years I can say that we are still, as far as
we know, the only company offering searches for agents internationally.
We have worked with some of the most famous brands in the world – but
still, the majority of our clients are small and medium sized brand.
With many of our clients returning to ask for further help we know we offer
a good service.
We are always happy to help start-ups as long as they have a professional
understanding of how to run a business.
I have travelled all over the world to give talks on best export practice
and we offer free 15 minutes advice sessions to set people in the right
direction.
Every brand is different and have different types of agents that they are
looking for – this we understand, and all our searches are tailored to the
needs of the brand.
Apart from our database of more than 20,000 agents, key to our success
is the team who, with myself, all love the work we do and are constantly
excited by the new brands that ask for our help every week of the year.

Brand description

Daniel Hechter was a pioneer to revolutionise prêt-à-porter by making it available

and affordable to a wider public. Today, the brand is present in 65 countries and
on all 5 continents in more than 600 mono-stores and 2.500 POS.

Our slogan is #hechtertogether: It symbolises the French way of life and is the
core of whatever we do. Friendship, partnership with our customers, the image
of our brand ambassadors, the esprit and charm in our collections and the lan-
guage of our image campaigns.

The brand Daniel Hechter was established in 1962 by the French designer Daniel
Hechter.

Miltenberger Otto Aulbach GmbH has been a licensee of Daniel Hechter mens-
wear since 1978.

The owners, the Aulbach family, have purchased the brand from Mr. Hechter on
his retiring in 1998. Since then, the group headed by the Aulbach family is fully in
charge of all products under the Daniel Hechter label except perfumes.

CASE STUDY 01

STANDARD SEARCH:
LINEA RAFFAELLI is a family business established in Belgium in 1952
designing elegant ladies’ occasion-wear and bridal lines with 600 sales
points in 20 countries.

COUNTRIES:
France, Germany and The United Kingdom

THE SEARCH PROJECT:

On October 2017 we started an agent search for Linea Raffaelli in three
countries: UK, Germany and France (which was shortly dropped by the
brand).

With the launch of the first promotional campaign, on the same day, we
started receiving enquiries and applications from agents wanting to be
connected to the brand.

By Jan/ 2018 they had already appointed an agent for the whole of UK, on
time for the autumn sales season.

In Germany, the search took a little longer, but it was well worth it. By April
they had appointed an International Showroom that would take not only their
occasion but also their bridal line AND they wouldn’t only sell the brand in
Germany, but also Austria and Switzerland as they are based in Dusseldorf,
but cover the whole DACH region as well.

antondell.com
A successful search that lasted six months and opened four new markets to
the brand. Happy to announce these collaborations are still going strong!
CASE STUDY 02

PREMIUM SEARCH:
Quay Australia is one of the biggest sunglass brands worldwide, second
only to Luxottica Group!

COUNTRIES:
Germany, France and Poland

THE SEARCH PROJECT:

We have been asked by the European Sales Director to find a series
of agents to cover Germany, but after a deeper talk, they have decided
to follow our advice and look for a bigger distributor that could handle
the market better and ensure the high sales volumes the company was
expecting.

The search results were great and in a matter of three months, we have
introduced six potential candidates, one of which is finalising an agreement
with Quay Australia in the next few days.

The company was so pleased with the results and the prospect of working
with distributors instead of agents, that they have asked us to help them find
new distributors in other territories, starting from France where the European
head office is based.

CASE STUDY 03

STANDARD SEARCH:
Established in 2010, FARRA was created by designer Donna Liu, an elite
designer and artist highly recommended by the Hong Kong Government,
where she’s based.

COUNTRY:
USA

THE SEARCH PROJECT:

The brand has never before worked with agents or distributors but after
attending a trade show in New York and receiving very good feedback,
the designer decided to take the next step and find an agent that could
represent the brand in the country.

The project started in November 2017 looking for representation in the USA
and by April 2018 already had appointed an agent and by July an exclusive
showroom in place. Throughout these five months she was introduced to
four very good potential contacts and decided to go with the showroom in
NYC.

FARRA is a fast-growing designer brand that exhibits now at 10 US trade

shows per year, stocked by 100+ boutiques in the USA alone and has now
become one of the jewellery suppliers for Macy’s.

After a successful implementation of the search project in USA, in July 2018

the company has requested Anton Dell to conduct a similar search, now in

antondell.com
the UK which is currently ongoing.

TESTIMONIALS
My company has been using the services of the Anton Dell fashion
consultancy for some seasons now and we have succeeded in finding
very suitable people for sometimes not so easy so find positions. We
value especially from mr. Anton dell his readiness and quick response,
and the variety of possibilities he is able to offer, obviously based on a
long time experience in the market. And what it is more important, his
capacity to react in case a fast replacement is needed, always within the
highest quality of people, in every market we have requested.”
Juan F Rodriguez, DIKTONS
We were looking for german, austrian, swiss and uk new sales support.
The proposals by anton dell were top-class and within 8 weeks, all
countries were in good hands. Everything worked perfectly with. Thank
you.”
Astrid, Saami Crafts
As market gets saturated, recession hits worldwide, sales forecasts
shrink and competitors are strengthening their efforts exponentially
skepticism was becoming common rule at the fashion industry. Mr anton
dell has helped our brand savage culture to find our way through this
gloomy outlook finding suitable agents and distributors worldwide. He
has been a reliable, efficient and extremely competent partner, always
a valuable asset for any organization which pursues to expanding
internationally on a secure way.”
Esteban Rey, Savage Culture
We have been working with anton dell for a number of years and we have
found them to be of great service to our business.
As an agency based in ireland, sometimes we can be overlooked by
brands.
Anton’s organisation was able to match us with a spanish shirt brand
nearly 10 years ago and our business has been growing steadily with
them.
We found anton and his staff to be very knowledgable about our industry
and we will continue to work with them in this ever changing industry
