Congratulations on International Women's Day, March 8!

One hundred and eleven years ago, Clara Zetkin and Rosa Luxemburg gave our world International Women's Day. Back then, in 1910, this day wasn't yet a holiday, but a manifesto—it was intended that every year on the last Sunday of February, women would hold rallies and marches in the fight for equal rights. Fortunately, the suffrage movement achieved its goals, and in the modern world, inequality, while still a problem, is now less radical.

Today, after numerous transformations, March 8th has become a peaceful holiday for all women, celebrated with festivals, concerts, and gifts. On this day, we want to say "thank you" to all the women whose work at our company helps GORELTEX move forward, multiplying its achievements and accelerating progress. You are not only beautiful, kind, and feminine—you are also strong, smart, and courageous. For you, we are ready to achieve great feats of labor!

Our dear colleagues, clients, and business partners! Our wives, mothers, sisters, and daughters! May your lives always be filled with joyful events, loving people, and breathtaking opportunities. We wish you success in all your endeavors, and that the surprises that fate presents are always exceptionally pleasant. Be happy—that's the most important thing, and then your life will be full of pleasure, love, and inspiration.

Please note that March 8 is a public holiday in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Happy Holidays!
