Fairytale
In 2015, Red Star was approached by a group of Russian investors, asking to visit Dutch amusement parks and organize a meeting with the owner. Russian investors are interested to build a slimmed down version of the Efteling near Moscow. Red Star made arrangements and after the visit, Red Star was awarded a contract to lead the Dutch-Russian project regarding the realization of the amusement park. The tasks that were performed are among others: a selection of European suppliers for the attractions and required equipment for the park; joint development of the infrastructure of the park; development of the marketing plan for the park. The first component -the Fairytale Forest- has been successfully realized. And the moving fairy tale characters in the forest feature the voice of the founder of Red Star – Irina Mikhailova. Indeed, a real “fairy tale project” for Red Star!
The focus lies on doing business in Eastern Europe. To improve the accessibility of the Eastern markets, Red Star has now opened a second office in Amsterdam. In addition, Red Star is actively establishing business contacts in the Middle East and China.
