There will be discounts at SLOW

And I want to tell you what led us to this decision for the first time in history.

If you are reading this article, you probably know that at SLOW we do not offer discounts because they do not correspond to our values. At SLOW we do not support overproduction and consumption. On the contrary, we support ethically and ecologically produced products, timelessness, quality and, most importantly, fairly paid work.

When I opened SLOW in a small 13 m² space at Medená 19 in September 2019 , I had no idea that you would like my concept so much. And even less that Covid would come a few months later.

I had no idea that my husband and I would create an amateur website on our knees, that we would manage to bring Kostek into the world, and that I would need help at SLOW.

I had no idea that we would move a few meters further into larger premises and in a few months our Wanda would be born. I never dreamed that I would create an amazing team of people to whom I would entrust my first baby – SLOW – and together we would work to make you – our customers – satisfied.

Little did I know that we were facing an economic crisis and political changes that would affect consumer purchasing behavior. I had no idea that I would have to respond to the ever-increasing greenwashing and that I would be able to drag all this out until September 2024.
I've been thinking for a long time about how and when I can repay you for your support. And since everyone would be happy with a discount, I've decided to put SLOW pieces on sale for the first time in five years.

"I do not see this step as a violation of our philosophy. I see it as a sincere thank you for being with us. That you profess and respect the same values ​​as us."

Together we will bring home pieces that will make you happy, we will manage to clean out the warehouse a bit, and SLOW will receive cashflow that we will use as best we can. We have a lot of plans! As always, we will implement them slowly, with our own strength (and hands).

The next challenge for us is to launch a new and professional website. We believe that thanks to your September purchases, we will be able to present it to you before Christmas.
We thank you all in advance for every purchase you make at SLOW in the coming weeks. But most of all, we thank you for the fact that together we can create a truly exceptional community and a unique concept of its kind in Slovakia.
 
Come on September 17th and celebrate 5 years with us.
Slowly and with a smile
Ilo & SLOW team
