Bahar Ashouri – CEO
Spring 2016: it rains 42 days, a record since 1960. Bahar takes her daughter Rose to the nursery every morning by bike, rain or shine. It's impossible to find a nice, practical cover. Early morning rides often turn into a drama.
Bahar has been working in the audiovisual sector for 15 years.
She has been on TV sets, created her own casting company, the time has come for her to start a new project, something useful, beautiful, creative!
15 months,
a few sleepless nights
and 25 prototypes later,
Rainette was born!
A range of cheerful, clever and accessible equipment,
to facilitate the daily life of bicycle-riding families.
