Freya Products is the recently founded company of David Lebbe (26) and Nicolas Vandermarliere (26). . ♪A reference to the Norwegian goddess of eternal youth who grew golden apples for the gods so that they could remain eternally young. Our apples are innovative products to keep the seniors home carefree for longer, says David Lebbe.
One of these products is the Freya Lévaté, a two-in-a-rollator. . •This system allows disabled and elderly people to easily stand up from their seat, seat, bed or toilet. The rollator has user-friendly hinges that transform the device into a stand-on help. It helps people to get back on their feet and walk around more , Vandermarliere says.
The prototype was developed in America and is currently being tested in France, the Netherlands, England, and Belgium. . • Many institutions, hospitals and residential care centres at home and abroad have already shown interest, says Nicolas.
The young entrepreneurs want to produce the Lévaté in Ostend and are already housed today in the business centre along the Kuipweg. About our central location on the coast is not only an advantage for Freya Products, but also the older population and the large group of second-time residents are an important potential market for them, says Mayor Johan Vande Lanotte (SP.A).
After Future Services, Flightwatch, Virtual Reality, Lunette Mobilette and TakeAir, Freya Products is the sixth company to receive an innovation grant from the Economic House of 20,000 euros this year. . •The aim of these grants to give creative start-ups opportunities is to promote the creation of new business opportunities, according to President Sabine Friedrichs.
. . A firm push in the back , says Nicolas . So we can develop our own innovative tools further . We urgently need to make our seniors more comfortable. • .
Nicolas and David have also developed a webshop for this purpose. . •We already have more than 1,700 products at our disposal, but it is our ambition to expand to over 5,000. We want to become the largest online healthcare provider in the Benelux. Today, delivery is tomorrow, David concludes.
