Updated: May 14, 2021


Florian Van den Hauwe is a 21-year-old student working as a salesman in my his family's bike shop in Melle near Ghent, Belgium. He is the fourth generation employee, as the bike shop has been with the family since 1921! Florian has completed a 3-year Business Bachelor’s degree and am now pursuing a 3-year Bachelor’s degree in Graphical and Digital Media. Florian has designed his family's website and helps run the social media and marketing. He and I were interested in some of the same courses we were taught during his exchange at Fanshawe College. It was a pleasure to have him on the show, where we chat about cycling, running a business, and how the pandemic will impact his family's business moving forward. Enjoy the episode, The Creative Kind Podcast has officially gone international!
