So tell me, how did Kris and Vlad spin this company up?
Kris and Vlad first crossed paths at a very large DTC retailer, where they worked to scale one of the most renowned premium brands in the United States. Vlad led two high-performing development teams: one in Ohio and another in Belarus, where Magento talent is world-renowned. This distributed model worked so well at the retailer that, when the time came to launch MTN Haus, they adopted the same approach. By blending technical expertise with a global team structure, Kris and Vlad built MTN Haus to deliver world-class solutions with the same rigor and reliability that first brought them together.
