When
Ann Simmons and Dixie Powers first met, it was aboard
a transpacifc flight. Both Ann and Dixie had experienced
business success on their own selling everything from
real estate to designer accessories. When they met they
discovered a mutual fascination for improving on things
and filling a niche. What came into their acute line
of observation was what passengers wanted in "travel
gear." Ann and Dixie saw an opportunity and Baggallini
was born.
"We
put our 50-hour layovers in Seoul to good use," says
Dixie. "We visited every bag and luggage manufacturer
in the city to see what was available in travel gear."
They spent their free time away and at home improving
on designs, testing products, and searching for manufacturers
who would work with them on creating high-quality, efficiently-designed
products.
Careful
thought has gone into designing their travel products
and they get many of their ideas by listening to the
opinions of some of the most experienced travellers
in the world -- flight attendants. Each product they
offer is manufactured to the highest quality standards
and is made of the best materials available.
Many of them are available at The Savvy Traveller.
