Gaël Pons
CMO, TKNP
Gael spent five years at the heart of one of France's largest textile printers, a small workshop that grew into an industry leader with 120 people. He saw thousands of team orders go through, and above all their quotes: what makes a fair price, what inflates it, what can be compared. Co-founder and CMO of The Kosmos (TKNP group), he writes about pricing and market data: transparency in numbers, so you buy with full knowledge.
Expertise
He knows the structure of a textile price line by line: the garment, the marking, the technical fees, the quantity brackets. He can decode a quote, compare offers that look nothing alike, and budget the real cost of outfitting a team of 10, 50 or 200.
