Meet Annah & Céline Lehmann

Founders of Scarlette, an innovative company that creates and curates branded products and extraordinary merchandising for your brand.

Annah & Céline are two sisters on a mission. They believe merchandise as we've known it is dead, and they want to make it better for the future: "When we started Scarlette we saw a lot of boring and plastic merchandise on the market. So we decided to use everything we learned in our fashion and lifestyle careers and to apply it to our branded products. We don’t want to make an uninspiring totebag that ends up in your cupboard somewhere. We are on a mission to redefine the world of branded gifts by giving less but better."

Family beginnings

The world of textile manufacturing was not unknown to them when they first started Scarlette. "Our father started his career in the textile industry more than 45 years ago. Today we are proud to continue his vision of quality and excellence, and to be able to work together as sisters. We both left our corporate careers behind. And we both wanted to create together, to discover new processes and to meet people who can teach us about this industry."

"Our motto? Start giving a crap and stop giving out crap!"

Life in plastic? Not fantastic.

"At Scarlette we blend family legacy with modern vision. That’s why we believe merchandise shouldn’t be a waste machine. We partner up with sustainable vendors, source locally whenever we can and believe that less actually means more. We favour carefully curated items over one-off trash with your logo on it."

Start your own story

"The best advice we’ve ever received was to take the jump and start our business. You’re leaving a golden cage anyway. Don’t look back and dare to do what you love, with the people you like best, and create your own vision of the world."
