A name is born

Husband-and-wife duo Gino and Marquerite Gottardo and their beloved business.

We officially named and claimed our business, Company & Good, in January 2020, just as the world was about to change in unexpected ways. We were married just days before the first lockdown, and soon after, welcomed our best girl, Millie into our family. It was a whirlwind of a year, but one that bonded us deeply to our purpose.

In May 2022, we joined the family at the Stikland factory, where we proudly contribute our craft to the collective.

While Magda’s Leather (our mom) and Hadassah Interiors (Claudia) focus on high-end furniture, Company & Good brings the finer details, such as handcrafted leather bags, belts, balls, and bows. It’s a beautiful blend of big and small, all under one creative roof.

We are fortunate to fit so perfectly into one another’s world.

In March 2016, Claudia Weyers, daughter of Magda, founded Hadassah Interiors, and just like her mom, had a clear vision to grow, innovate, and create.

She is a mother of three beautiful daughters and a driven entrepreneur. Claudia balances motherhood and business with grace and strength, and her passion and perseverance shine through in every piece of bespoke furniture and every interior project she leads.

Her business quickly became a natural extension of Magda’s Leather, offering modern, functional furniture and manufacturing for interior designers.

Claudia now leads the manufacturing operations of both Hadassah Interiors and Magda’s Leather furniture. Her experience in furniture design, upholstery, furniture repair and manufacturing, and knowledge of leather makes her a true powerhouse.

Like mother, like daughter.

The heart of our story is the factory in Stikland, built not just with bricks and tools, but with faith, prayer, and vision. With almost no capital and plenty of determination, Magda founded the factory in 2002. Every wall stands as a testament to what can be achieved through belief and hard work.

Guided by divine inspiration, Magda found the perfect piece of land, and from there, began producing high-quality, handcrafted leather furniture that quickly developed a loyal customer base, many of whom still visit us today.

The legacy continues through Magda’s children, who each contribute in their own way to the ongoing success of the family business.

Magda, the founder and inspiration behind it all, began her journey in 1979, reselling designer handbags at just 19 years old. Her first venture, Magda’s Leather, grew into a beloved brand. Even after her first marriage ended in 1988, Magda continued to grow her business, expanding into a leather clothing range that provided for her and her four children.

Later, alongside her second husband, she ventured into leather furniture manufacturing, laying the foundation for what would become the family’s flagship factory.
