22. Partner Interview
‘ZA:KAK’ helped me a lot not only in design but also in many ways in running a startup..
Nolgurami is a company that manufactures/sells sensor-play tables and play kits.
At first, there were a lot of difficulties. From design to drawing, wood selection to
manufacturing/delivery, I arranged every step of the company myself, so the person in charge of each
step was different, so there were a lot of errors when I moved from one stage to another. As a result,
it was time-consuming and time-consuming.
I am grateful that I received great help from the overall product design and production through the
‘ZA:KAK’ service, and I hope that we can continue to exchange help and develop products together
as we received great help.

23. Partner Interview
Responsible and professional services from beginning to end of the development of furniture
products. Thanks to “ZA:KAK", we developed a product that was satisfactory.
Hello! I'm the director of Remarkable Education Laonzena.
Remarkable Education is a franchise company specializing in early childhood English education.
Before I knew ‘ZA:KAK’ I had no expertise in furniture manufacturing, no distribution knowledge,
so I had a lot of difficulties in design, manufacturing, process management, logistics management, and
all these complicated and professional processes. We have received a standardized table design service
that reflects such needs that are suitable for our English-educated children to use while studying and
easy to sell/distribute in the franchise.
What was especially impressive was that the service of ‘ZA:KAK’ was very professional at each stage,
and he was responsible for all of this from the beginning to the end of product development, from
requirement analysis, design, design drawings, manufacturing, logistics.
