The vision of fashion that inspires

“Our aim is to design modern, stylish and sustainable street couture - with great attention to detail,” says Melanie, describing Baron Filou's mission.

Founded in 2019, the Austrian company pursues the idea of combining youthful designs with sustainable production methods. With a team of ten creative minds, Baron Filou now sells to over 40 countries worldwide and is represented in more than 400 retail shops.

“The beginning was a real challenge,” Melanie recalls. The search for producers who work in an environmentally friendly and fair way proved to be difficult. At the same time, Baron Filou had to assert itself in a highly competitive market dominated by fast, often environmentally harmful fashion trends. However, the team remained true to its vision and consistently focussed on sustainable production and creative designs.

Conquering the market with unique designs

A turning point for Baron Filou was the launch of the first collection, which was immediately well received and established the brand as a pioneer in street couture.

“Another milestone was the relocation of our production to Portugal, where we produce under fair working conditions and with sustainable methods,” says Melanie. These steps emphasise the company's commitment to reshaping the fashion industry in a responsible way.

Logistics as a success factor

With increasing success, Baron Filou decided to outsource its logistics in order to focus on its core business. “Our collaboration with Quivo has helped us to make our logistics processes more efficient and environmentally friendly,” explains Melanie. Quivo ensures that the products reach their customers on time and responsibly. This has allowed Baron Filou to fully focus on design and development.

The strength of the collaboration was particularly evident during the peak season. “We were very satisfied with Quivo during the peak season because they supported us with flexible and reliable logistics,” emphasises Melanie.

Despite the high volume of orders, the products were delivered on time, which helped Baron Filou to get through this intensive phase stress-free!

"Even during order peaks, Quivo supports us with flexible and reliable logistics. Despite the high order volume, we were mostly able to deliver on time. This allowed us to concentrate on our core tasks and manage the peak season with virtually no stress."

The epitome of style

"Our Fall/Winter 2024 collection is here - and it's the epitome of style," explains Melanie proudly.

“With the Millionaire Bears Club, we are taking our style to a new level. Nine exclusive bear designs, for adults and kids, covering every taste from casual to luxurious. This is not about clothes, but about statement pieces that perfectly capture the vibe of the coming season. This collection is made for those who know what they want - and want to show it.”

Best practices for a smooth peak season

Through its collaboration with Quivo, Baron Filou has developed valuable best practices for the peak season, i.e. key factors for optimally managing order peaks, which would be:

  1. Early planning: Stock levels and capacities are adjusted in good time based on previous experience.
  2. Sync with the fulfilment provider: Close collaboration with the logistics partner ensures quick reactions to changes.
  3. Efficient processes: Optimised ordering and shipping processes speed up handling.
  4. Customer transparency: Open communication about delivery times keeps 

Focusing on these cornerstones creates the basis for coping with order peaks without any problems.

Proud of the joint success

Melanie is particularly proud of the growth of the brand, which has established itself as a leader in sustainable street couture. “Our team works every day to further our vision of modern and creative fashion,” she says.

The collaboration with Quivo has been instrumental in enabling Baron Filou to continuously evolve and meet the challenges of a global e-commerce market.

Baron Filou has big plans for the upcoming collections and is looking forward to further exciting developments. The strong partnership with Quivo will allow the company to continue its expansion in the future and continue to bring unique, stylish and responsibly produced fashion to the market.
