The story of AGU
AGU was founded in 1966 by bicycle wholesaler JAKO and two wholesalers from Alkmaar in the Netherlands. The new company was named Alkmaarse Groot Handels Unie (AGU), which until the early 70s only traded spare parts and accessories for bicycles and mopeds.
But AGU expands with bike equipment - including rain gear - and in 1976 AGU won their first prize for unique design of bike rainwear. The award was presented by Holland's then Foreign Minister Westerterp, and the jury said about the rain set: "At first sight this set of bike rainwear do not distinguishes from conventional sets, but on closer inspection it turns out that it is really well thought out when it comes to details and finish". And exactly "thought out in details and finish" is what still characterizes AGU bike rainwear today.
In 1980, AGU introduces a raincoat for bicycle enthusiast who is so successful that other manufacturers start copying it. AGU had to threaten to sue those who copied to protect their good name and reputation.
In 1986, AGU developed breathable bike rainwear - and among bike bags we have to mention "Quorum", which became another great success for AGU. Extremely durable bike bag, who in 1988 was tested by three adventurers from Paris to Dakar.
In 1990, AGU won the fashion industry's biggest reward in Holland, "Grand Seigneur" for having introduced fashion to sportswear - and so we could go on. Latest price is "The Red Dot Design Award" - an international award for aesthetic, innovative and functional design - as AGU won for their "SEQ Urban" raincoat for ladies.

The story of TRETORN
TRETORN was founded in 1891 by Johan Dunker in Helsingborg, Sweden. At that time the factory was called Helsingborg Rubber Factory and manufactured tires. But then he hired his only 21-year-old son, Henry Dunker, as a salesman - and it was he who later took over and very successfully developed TRETORN to a major producer of rubber boots, rubber shoes, rainwear, the world's best tennis equipment etc.
Besides being an accomplished entrepreneur Henry Dunker also had a social engagement and offered ahead of his time his employees free health care, day care and kindergarten. That engagement created a solid foundation of good will among his employees and helped to ensure continued success. In 1892 TRETORN produced 39,000 pair of galoshes. Just two years later the number had risen to 209,000 pairs, and high and low in Sweden was wearing rubber boots from TREORN. In 1896 rubber boots from TRETORN was recognized as the best in Sweden, Denmark and Germany, and the production had now reached 1 million pairs per year.
In addition TRETORN manufactured rubber tubes, pedals, shoes and tennis equipment - and when Sweden's world famous tennis player Björn Borg, still considered one of the best ever, went on the tennis courts with TRETORN tennis balls, rackets and the newly developed "Nylite" luxury sports shoes, the success was for real. Nylite became fashion, and soon celebrities like Farah Fawcett and Jackie O. wore Nylite sports shoes from TRETORN. In 1980 the original sailor rubber boot "Skerry" became a classic, which starts another fashion trend in Europe.
For more than 120 years TRETORN has worked hard to earn their reputation of superior quality, functionality and innovative novelties. In the future TRETORN will continue to set the standard for rubber boots, shoes, tennis balls and outerwear that offers comfort beyond the ordinary.
