About you:
Hi there, we are Gianluca and Beatrice. Two siblings, passionate and motivated beekeepers who never say no to a challenge! Everything we decide to do is driven by great energy, strength and also tenacity. We are nature lovers and our days are never the same. But that’s how we like it!
In life we have taken different paths; Gianluca, after working in the family business and changing many passions, one day discovered his vocation: bees. Beatrice, on the other hand, took a path in the academic field, obtaining a degree in Marketing and writing her final papers on the excellence of Made in Italy.
One day, almost for fun, the ApisuApe Instagram page was opened. From that moment on, the work to be managed became so much that Beatrice left her job in the company to dedicate herself completely to the business with her brother. Even though we are so different, the key words that brings us together are passion and enthusiasm. To date, ApisuApe is our whole life!
Favourite Blåkläder garment:
They are all very comfortable, it’s hard to find one.
Do you have a hidden talent? None that we can think of
If you were an animal what would you be? Bee, what a question!
What is your perfect working day like? What we like about our job is that we don’t have a typical day. We do so many different activities in a day that it is difficult to remember them all in the evening.
Favourite song?
Rome wasn’t built in a day – Morcheeba (Beatrice)
La Canzone del Sole – Lucio Battisti (Gianluca)
If you could only eat one thing all your life what would it be? Pizza for both
Summer or winter? We prefer spring, but if we have to choose between summer or winter, summer is better.
What would you NOT take with you if your house burned down? The ironing board
Three things to do in life :
– COLLABORATE in any field/sector collaboration is fundamental
– LISTEN to others, it is one of the most difficult things, but it is very important
– LAUGH, knowing how to take oneself not too seriously and laughing out loud
