What is a quality of tent producing in Czech Republic?

Recently we're noted, especially on German internet "humorous" articles coast doubt upon quality of tents made in Eastern Europe. With thereby marking we can perceive tents manufactured in Czech Republic too. With this statement we cannot agree resolutely. All things are very piquant, because inciters of such information they are some German firms, who fall into biggest customers of Czech tents.

What is a reason? Friends, it is very simple. German market was long years "forbidden zone", and after entrance Czech Republic into EU circumstances were not changed.  From 1. January 2006 many of Czech producers take place fundamental changes in their business policy. Czech factory or independent distributors can sell the tents on German market without limits at present days. It is direct imperilment trading profits of firms, which profit from their especially position to this time. Some of them denote themselves as producers. I don't know Germany law, but in Czech Republic is this behavior regarded as unfair competition and under definite circumstances is punitive even.

On Czech market operate several ten different size firms, which produce good-class tents. Certainly, they have some reclamation. But my own firm has complete confidence in partners with well functional reclamation department, than in firms which pretends, that they have not one (reclamations). Goods of producers who have the best quality/price ratio, you can find in Delta’s offer.

We introduce you an article about history of production tents in Czech Republic date back to period of Napoleonic wars in near time.

What´s new in 2006 ?

I would like to apologize to all for the problems with communication in December and January. I had to solve a fundamental problem. I didn´t know if I wouldn´t have to expel some type of tents from the offer.

At this moment I don´t have any intentions to adjust my business policy to the image of some German firms. I don´t want to rise the prices for the overcharging Czech tents in the German market only. The fact than we make without problems more money by selling the tents by higher prices isn´t an argument for me.

Czechs are not monkeys that work for a banana or a bowl of rice but each product has it´s optimal price. I won´t not prey trade partners and the customers, because they lives on economically stronger countries than is the Czech Republic only. Germany is the problem of Germans, not mine, let them do as they can. I prefere business ethics to a full wallet.
