When
we founded RAKEN, we started an e-business from a new
perspective. A second generation Internet startup, we sought for
market niches in the bridging of cultures, which is what Internet does
best.
From our background experience in North African and
Arabian countries, we knew the riches and diversity of Mediterranean,
Arab and African cultures, its arts and crafts and historic places.
Originally a Swiss company, we selected Tunisia as the
hub for our e-business activities both for its position at the
crossroads of Mediterranean, Arab and African cultures and for its
emphasis to make e-commerce and Internet the platform to its further
development. This pioneering attitude assures us direct access to
unique handcrafted decoration objects in an evolutive economic
environment favourable to e-commerce. |

Rashid Daniel Menebhi

Our
RAKEN Style collection contains a vast selection of Tunisian and
Moroccan
carpets and tapestries, ceramics and pottery as well as wrought iron and
mouth-blown glass lightings, Tuareg jewellery, hand-painted wood objects and
more. To further improve our personalised services, we have launched the
Collectors Corner, where we seek products on special customer request.
Through
RAKEN Retailer, we sell to specialised shops and interior decorators,
enabling them to request quotes and order online, much in the same way as
our direct customers. We now have registered retailers in Europe, North and
South America.

With
our e-commerce platform thus established, we will continuously expand
our product range, following the wishes of our customers and seeking
our inspiration in more Mediterranean, Arab and African countries.
Thereby we will also continue to emphasize on our other
activities : our virtual RAKEN Art gallery, our projected
special tour operator RAKEN Travel, for cultural and adventure
trips to Mediterranean, African and Arab countries, as well as our web
site development unit RAKEN Services.
We hope thereby to offer you an enriching experience and
invite you to explore www.raken.com and find its treasures.
Have a nice visit. |
