This universal longing to spend more time out there (and fashionably) resonates with many. As their community grew, a challenge emerged. The very logistics that linked their creations to customers pulled the team away from creating meaningful connections and the natural world that inspires them.
After evaluating their options, for lovers and trees chose Swotzy for the simple reason that it would instantly solve their biggest pain point of slow order processing.
The Swotzy features that drew their attention:
What particularly stood out was how seamlessly Swotzy integrated into their daily operations without disrupting their made-to-order production rhythm.
“The transition process required a bit of time to adapt—moving from our previous partnerships and contracts. But after that initial adjustment, it hasn’t required anything more than just working within the platform.” — Kristīne Lizandre, brand owner
With Swotzy integrated into their workflow, every shipment now flows effortlessly, freeing up precious hours that for lovers and trees now channel into crafting their iconic collections.

That’s 15 hours per week. 60 hours per month. Over 700 hours per year, reclaimed from tedious manual shipping tasks and redirected toward growing the brand and engaging with customers.
“We’re extremely pleased with the collaboration! The biggest benefit is the significant time savings, allowing us to redirect our energy toward other important tasks. Saving labor hours has truly made a difference in our daily workflow.” — Kristīne Lizandere, brand owner
The time savings transformed their daily operations.

for lovers and trees operates on a made-to-order model, each signature knitwear piece is crafted specifically for the customer who orders it. This intentional approach means 10 working days for production, small collections, no overproduction, and deep respect for materials and labor.
It’s a beautiful philosophy. But it also means every single order requires careful attention—not just in creation, but in delivery.
Before Swotzy, the team manually entered shipping data for each order.
“We were spending so much time on manual data entry,” says Kristīne Lizandere, brand owner. “Not all couriers cover all territories, and each has their own strengths. We needed the ability to quickly choose the best option—but comparing and managing multiple courier websites was eating up our time.”
For a brand built on slow, conscious creation, spending hours on administrative logistics felt misaligned with their core values.
Automated shipping processes save for lovers and trees approximately 3 hours daily, freeing up valuable time for business development
Multi-carrier access provides flexibility and reliability to meet diverse shipping needs across different markets

It’s the blend of hands-on hustle and genuine customer connection that has let for lovers and trees grow organically.

Looking ahead, their vision includes strengthening the for lovers and trees through exclusive collaboration capsules with influencers and well-known European brands, which would further expand their market reach and deepen customer connections.
Kristīne’s guidance for other entrepreneurs is refreshingly honest and customer-focused:
“The client is the ultimate answer to all questions when bringing a product online. It takes 50 approvals, and within those are all the answers—the client will tell you what needs to be changed, what fits or doesn’t fit the brand, and what should be postponed. The client’s vote with their wallet is the most honest feedback of all.”
And for the fresh ones in the game:
“Better done than perfect. Just start.”
