YOOMEE is inspired by the beauty, the people and the handcraft of marrakech, kathmandu and zurich. our vision is to preserve the traditional craftsmanship and to build sustainable and personal relationships with our producers. we work directly with street artists, small manufactories and our women’s associations.
first of all mehdi is a passionate story teller. he always has a quip up his sleeve and loves to leave his funny comments.
In 2016 i met mehdi at riad be marrakech - initially he was a friend who always made a comment about my products and from time to time he became a good friend and a helping hand. when the corona period started i couldn't travel to marrakech myself and was looking for someone who could support me from afar. so he became an indispensable team member in 2020.
his function at YOOMEE is: production management. this includes: communication between the artisans and florence, product control, packaging and shipping to switzerland.
besides his important and serious functions, there are some fun facts to know about mehdi:
- he is the loudest sneezer i have ever met. - can never answer a question with one word (I think this is due to his actual profession) - his favorite words are: terrible, seriously and mähhh (if you can call that a word)
