Since its founding in 1926, its history has been intertwined with both easier and harder times for artisanal production. Undoubtedly, one of the most challenging episodes was the period of the second half of the 20th century and the new geopolitical order. It brought a socialist system to the Polish people after World War II. For almost half a century, with varying intensity, the authorities aimed to eliminate private companies and businesses. The centrally planned economy aimed to remove private initiatives and entrepreneurship from the economic landscape of Poland.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"cmsmasters_row_6a21d087f08de6_08766782\" class=\"cmsmasters_row cmsmasters_color_scheme_default cmsmasters_row_top_default cmsmasters_row_bot_default cmsmasters_row_boxed\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_row_outer_parent\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_row_outer\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_row_inner\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_row_margin\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_column one_half\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_text\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 300;\">It\u2019s well known that hard times build strong characters. In difficult times, the support of loved ones and friendship are equally important. The Sterkowski Factory is a textbook example of this order of things. Zygmunt Sterkowski &#8211; the father of our master craftsman Marek Sterkowski was a friend and cooperated with a cap maker from \u0141\u00f3d\u017a named Aleksander Milczarski. They exchanged experience and technological knowledge in the field of headwear production. Their professional relationship turned into a friendship.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_column one_half\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_img  cmsmasters_image_n\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sterkowski.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/2-scaled.jpg\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"cmsmasters_row_6a21d087f0bab9_41357825\" class=\"cmsmasters_row cmsmasters_color_scheme_default cmsmasters_row_top_default cmsmasters_row_bot_default cmsmasters_row_boxed\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_row_outer_parent\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_row_outer\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_row_inner\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_row_margin\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_column one_first\">\n<div class=\"cmsmasters_text\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 300;\">As a family-owned company, we are proud of this fact, because we believe the story is exceptional.
