## Our Story
Otto International belongs to the Otto Group, one of the world’s leading privately owned multi-channel retail groups. Servicing the complex processes specific to this business has always been what we do.
We stand out because of our roots, our culture and our tailor-made sourcing solutions.
## Our Growth
From our headquarters in Hong Kong, our presence has expanded across Europe, Asia, and Africa. During this expansion, we have developed partnerships with our joint ventures: Scan-Thor and OAGN. This has also led to the establishment of new product divisions within our portfolio. Our growth is a tribute to our quality of service and our employees, who have a superb working relationship with suppliers and clients alike.
## Our People
We are proud members of a close-knit, results-driven community that stretches all over the world. Our diversity is a strength: it provides us with a wide variety of perspectives when doing our work.
## Our Culture
How we do things is equally as important as what we do. Our culture goes hand-in-hand with our business.
At Oi, everyone actively contributes to the change we want to see. We all participate in our company-wide mindset and cultural change.
It Starts with Me.
