History[edit]

The company was founded in 2012 in Nijverdal, The Netherlands with the name KLEDING B.V. by Jan-Willem Tusveld, Rudy Kappert and Peter Langenkamp.[10][11] [12][13] Initially, the company had only available in the Dutch website but with 7.5 million sales in the first fiscal year, the company expanded to the international markets with the name FASHIOLA.[14][15] The website was first launched in Germany in 2013, followed by Great Britain in 2014, and France, and Spain in 2015.[16][17][18][19][20]
