Interview with Johan Olzon Åkerström, Founder of Soeder. Written by Melanie Gath.
What kind of father are you? Are there things you would like to do differently? What do you want to give your children for their journey? What significance does nature have for your family? These are just some of the questions that Franz Bittmann asks in his interview format. He meets with fathers and seeks an honest exchange. He gives family fathers a voice, and in the "from father to father" conversation, they discuss the challenges that being an entrepreneur and the desire to be a good father bring with them.
On his journey through the world of fathers who, just like him, have navigated the balancing act between family life and founding a company, Franz also met Johan. Johan Olzon Åkerström is the founder of Soeder – a manufacturer of high-quality Swiss natural care products. He himself says that he "grew up in the woods," so to speak – in a village surrounded by forest, where he actually spent every day outdoors. Johan explains the difference nature makes to the family atmosphere in their home today."
