Retailers

Born on 7th February 1973, Kristina grew up in Falkenberg, Sweden, one of four children. In 1995 she followed her heart to Australia and has since become a permanent resident.

Little more than ten years later and Kristina has turned a desire for stylish home office products into a booming design and retail business, with 25 boutiques across Australia & New Zealand, and an online store that services the world.

Kristina started kikki.K with little business knowledge, but her drive and determination for what she felt passionate about was evident from an early age. At the tender age of ten, little Kikki would ride her bicycle around the snow covered streets of her neighbourhood, selling and delivering Christmas books door-to-door.

It’s no surprise she was named best saleswoman for her region. A sign of things to come. A love of stationery developed early. Bursting with creative energy, Kristina looked forward to the start of a new school year surrounded by new notebooks, pencils and folders - and the promise of organisation they bring. A true stationery addict.

That passion is still present today. Kristina still gets excited by the delivery of new kikki.K products, wasting no time to rip open boxes arriving at the warehouse to revel in stationery goodness.

Displaying an amazing amount of drive and enthusiasm, Kristina has followed her dream from concept to reality. If starting her own business wasn’t difficult enough, doing it in her second language, with her family and friends on the other side of the world certainly added to the challenge.

However it seems there’s no obstacle too big for Kristina. She is a happy, enthusiastic person with boundless energy, who loves life, thinks health is everything, and wants you to be as passionate about stationery as she is.
