Mittersisters Ltd. Begins International Expansion

Mittersisters Ltd., which organizes unique leather bag-making workshops, will begin international expansion next year after closing out a successful year this year, with revenue expected to double, according to company owner Anna Róza Mitter.

Mittersisters launched as a Hungarian designer brand in 2015 and has been operating as a company since 2023.

The business is based on an idea conceived by founder Anna Róza Mitter, a textile designer, whose concept centers on providing a space, professional expertise, and tools for creating personalized leather goods through leather bag-making workshops, while the customer actively participates in the design and creation process.

The company’s operations currently rest on four pillars: at their bag-making workshop, a unique leather bag is crafted in 4-10 hours and comes with a lifetime warranty. In addition, they produce simpler items and personalized leather accessories; they also organize team-building events for companies and offer logo-branded gifts. According to Anna Róza Mitter, their clients are typically Hungarian subsidiaries of major international corporations and luxury brands, including Samsung, Mercedes-Benz, Breitling, Hermès, Estée Lauder, Inditex, Allianz and Telekom. The corporate division accounted for 20% of revenue last year, she noted.

Over the past ten years, with more than 35,000 participants, they have produced over 10,000 bags and approximately 25,000 accessories, and have organized more than 400 corporate events.

Anna Róza Mitter reported that their franchise business plan was completed this year, in which they assessed the possibilities for opening additional stores and expanding their network. They will continue the project in 2027 and hope to open their first store by then.

Next year, they plan to open their own store in a neighboring country, and in the coming years, they aim to expand into other European countries with franchise partners. She did not wish to disclose further details about the project.

Mittersisters Ltd.’s revenue was HUF 55.4 million last year and could reach HUF 110 million this year.
