The Ukrainian company began negotiations with Disney in the spring of 2017, after which the cooperation started.
During negotiations, Ugears twice passed the Disney audit – preparation for the first one consisted of 400 points. “They checked everything – financial statements of the company, workplaces, conducted interviews with employees without the presence of line managers,” Shestak comments. He also added that Ugears was the first company in the last 22 years to whom Disney has allowed to leave its brand on the packaging. According to Disney, all models are unique and created specifically for the company.
