About us
Company portrait 4row GmbH
The company 4row GmbH was founded in March 2010 in Richterswil (Switzerland).
Our slogan is:
Together we move the rowing sport
Everything the oarsman and the oarswoman for rowing needs, conveniently ordered on the Internet.
As an active oarsman or coach, we were always faced with the situation that we had to order all the material such as new slides, ball bearing rollers, oarlocks, etc from different suppliers. This was sometimes time-consuming and complicated, various calls to suppliers and manufacturers were necessary until we had gathered everything. In 2010, internet commerce had not yet arrived in rowing. Our own consumer behavior and the fact that there was no such thing in Switzerland yet, motivated us to create this online store for all oarsmen and women in Switzerland.
Management: Adrian Schmid & Alexander Wüst
