Estonia · Expanding across Europe Concept Owner

ORDER2GETHER

A pre-sold group-buying franchise built for markets where distance, small volumes, and long supply chains push prices up. In each country, a local franchise partner gathers customer pre-orders first; once a campaign reaches its minimum, goods are bought directly from the manufacturer and shipped as one consolidated container — every unit already sold, with a full refund if the minimum is not met. Iceland is the first live market, operating as HÓPINNKAUP, with exclusive country franchises open across Europe. Stephensen Consulting owns and develops the concept — the brand, franchise model, supplier network, and partner portal behind it.

Approach

How we work with clients

Listen first

Every engagement begins with a consultation to understand your business, goals, and challenges — before a single document is drafted or strategy proposed.

Tailor everything

No templates, no generic advice. Each service plan is built around your specific situation, jurisdiction, and objectives — with transparent, value-based pricing.

Stay engaged

Scheduled check-ins, progress updates, and open communication throughout. We measure ourselves on client satisfaction and long-term partnership, not billable hours.

Whether you are launching a startup, protecting your intellectual property, or evaluating an investment — we would be glad to hear from you.
