Our story- the founders

The story started in 2005, when Hilde & Michelle met from each side of the table in the grocery industry. The next 10 years they followed each other, from grocery to the pharma industry.

In 2018 they finally joined forces in the same distribution company.

They soon realised that their combined skills and a the true joy of working together, was meant to be something more.

Their growing interest in sustainable solutions and healthier alternatives, kicked off the idea of founding a new distribution company- focusing on bringing new innovating and planet friendly products to the Scandinavian market

In 2021 Motion Oslo was born.
