What an incredible honor! Our founder, Bettina Van Haute, has been named ‘Female Entrepreneur of the Year 2025’ in Flemish Brabant by Made-in! 🏆 With an impressive 625 out of 2,625 votes, she won over the public with her inspiring entrepreneurial journey and unwavering commitment to sustainability, quality, and functionality in children's clothing.
"This award means the world to me," says Bettina. "Ducksday is about more than just children's clothing. It's about something much bigger: love – for kids, for outdoor adventures, and for our planet. Everyone who believes in us and supports us has played a part in this achievement. I am beyond grateful!"
From a Simple Idea to an International Success Story
The Ducksday journey began 12 years ago with a personal challenge. Bettina couldn't find the right rain gear for her friend's daughter, so she decided to design her own solution. It turned out to be a game-changer. What started with a single rain suit quickly grew into a full-fledged collection, now sold worldwide.
Today, Ducksday is active in 15 countries and offers a wide range of functional and stylish outdoor clothing – from rain suits and ski pants to UV-protective summer apparel. Our mission? To let kids enjoy the outdoors, no matter the weather.
Sustainability at the Heart of Ducksday
What truly sets Ducksday apart is the combination of sustainability, quality, and timeless design:
✅ Sustainable materials – as many recycled fabrics as possible and reusable packaging.
✅ Slow fashion – clothing designed to last and be passed down to siblings, cousins, and friends.
✅ Functional designs – built to withstand any weather conditions, from heavy rain to freezing cold.
An Award That Drives Us to Do More
Winning the ‘Female Entrepreneur of the Year’ award is not just a recognition, but a motivation to keep growing and making Ducksday even more sustainable.
"We will continue to innovate and contribute to a better future for our children," says Bettina.
At Ducksday, we believe that every child deserves the joy of outdoor adventures, regardless of the weather. And thanks to your support, we can keep making that happen.
