Hear the story of growing Mons Royale with founder Hamish Acland. From Lake Wanaka in New Zealand, Mons Royale has grown into a global brand stocked in over 700 retail outlets worldwide, with over 50 staff, creating technical merino apparel for style discerning adventurers.  As a professional freeskier Hamish spent years travelling the world on the pro skiing circuit, where he found a gap in the market to create both fashionable and functional thermal underlayers. In 2009 Mons Royale was founded alongside his wife Hannah who leads brand design.  Mons Royale works with a range of athletes and ambassadors which keeps connected to the passionate core and connects to a growing fan base.  They have three key business units across Europe, Australia/New Zealand and North America, with a mixture of sales force including reps, agents, and distributors covering the markets with global offices in Vancouver, Innsbruck and Wanaka. By sticking to values of driving a local brand from mountain towns around the world, it's enabling them to attract some amazing employees and build a business based on what it’s really all about.  Are you a kiwi founder?
