The company was situated in the town of kædeby on the small danish island of langeland and was very succesful in the 1960s and 70s. At one point they had up to 15 employees, working largely with retailer rasmus holbech in odense on the island of funen. The pair sold the company in 1982 but stayed on in the house kædebyhus, where the production had taken place.
