The Story of DNgroup

If you are going for global cross-border e-commerce, then innovation and fresh thinking are essential keys to your success. DNgroup is an indispensable partner in helping you navigate your way to successful cross-border trading.

The Story of DNgroup

A few years ago, we received several projects from clients in Europe and Taiwan who hoped our services would cover cross-border trading. The clients needed strategic e-commerce consultancy through brand innovation.


Because of the initial clients' trust, we were able to enter the new domain and gain a lot of valuable experience, allowing us to finally make cross-border e-commerce consultancy one of our strong service items.


How is a Danish design agency able to help clients with innovative cross-border e-commerce? The story should go back to 20 years ago, when the founder of DNgroup, Frederick Rickmann’s venture, started.

The Story of DNgroup

The headquarters of DNgroup are located in Denmark, but they established the 1st overseas branch in Taiwan in 2003. The CEO of DNgroup, Frederick Rickmann, is a Scottish national. He changed his career from an architect to the industrial domain. He started his own business in Denmark and lived in Denmark for over 40 years.


In 1999, Rickmann started to look for a branch office in Asia for DESIGNNORD (former name of DNgroup). Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan were considered. Finally, he chose Taiwan because of the better combination with Denmark. The industrial design quality in Denmark is better than in other countries, and the industries of Denmark and Taiwan are similar in that they have many more mid-sized enterprises. Rickmann thought if DN could combine the well-known design quality of Denmark with the best manufacturing knowledge of Taiwan, it would be very competitive and could create unique products for the markets as well as help the companies earn more profits.

The Story of DNgroup

Since 2003, when DNgroup started in Taiwan, we have done hundreds of design projects and 70% of successful projects launched to help clients get healthy cash flow into their companies. We believe running a good company is the biggest contribution to society, and we are looking forward to creating happiness for the employees of our clients and clients' companies together with you.
