Hatstore was founded in 2011 and has since then made a journey at a fast pace. From having a room with the entire business of 10 sqm, today they have premises of over 1000 sqm. Hatstore has online stores in Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Germany, France, Spain, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. Tens of thousands of customers have already chosen Hatstore and it is increasing with hundreds of new customers every day.
