Meeting in Gdansk — Inspirational meeting with JYSK products in Gdansk

Nearly one million views of JYSK's products appeared on Polish social media after a special event for interior and lifestyle bloggers and influencers.

Influencers — First Polish JYSK store was opened in Gdansk

The event took a place at the beginning of October, in the city where the first store in Poland opened: Gdansk. The location was filled with Scandinavian design visible in the furniture, flowers, pillows, blankets, and candles to create a cozy interior.

The invited guests have large audiences on social media: Instagram, Facebook, YouTube. All of them could learn about the latest JYSK trends, as well as experience directly how to put together individual JYSK products while creating a peaceful and serene space.

SCANDINAVIAN DESIGN

The Scandinavian design of interiors is very popular in Poland. Minimalism, a reference to the nature in colours, structure or texture, as well as plenty of room for light make JYSK fall trends desirable in many Polish homes.

"We are very happy having a chance to meet our partners and inspire them to create a cozy space for cold autumn days. The wide range of reports and publications that we observed after the event convince us about the importance of this kind of marketing tool to reach our customers," says Joanna Kalinowska, Sales and Marketing Manager at JYSK Poland.

NOT ONLY AN INSPIRING SPACE

After an inspiring meeting in the apartment, the influencers made a unique journey back in time around the Gdansk Shipyard. One of the trip elements was a ride on a historic Cucumber bus, equipped with JYSK pillows, blankets and lamps. With roasted chestnuts in one hand and hot chocolate in the other, the participants heard about the history of the most important place for the city of Gdansk.
