Along the way they met numerous challenges, but have remained true to their initial vision of what they believed possible and are set to fully launch their first collection. All of this has been achieved with the sisters living in different continents and not being able to meet due to COVID travel restrictions. So sit back, pour a coffee and relax as we are in conversation with Amanda McCourt Co-founder of Pantee.
