At a time when Ukrainian manufacturers are increasingly expanding into international markets, the enterprise TANSEY—based in Poltava—is successfully operating, specializing in the production of sportswear, equipment, and branded merchandise.
Founded in 2018, the company has developed a modern, full-cycle production facility in just a few years; its products are now available on both the Ukrainian and European markets.
The production facility is located at 3 Zavodska Street, Poltava. Spanning over 630 square meters, the site houses cutting, sewing, embroidery, and printing workshops. The company employs 10 specialists and has an annual production volume of approximately 14,000 sports items, including over 4,000 *kimonos* for Kyokushin Karate.
The facility is equipped with modern machinery, including TYPICAL industrial sewing machines, EPSON sublimation printing systems, and Ricoma equipment for DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing. This infrastructure enables the company to manufacture both mass-produced items and custom orders featuring sports branding.
The product range includes Kyokushin Karate *kimonos*, T-shirts, hoodies, sports bags, backpacks, towels, caps, hats, protective gear for karate, football uniforms, and decorative souvenirs, as well as branded merchandise for sports clubs, federations, educational institutions, and corporate clients. TANSEY products are available on major Ukrainian marketplaces, including Epicentr, Prom.ua, Rozetka, and Bigl. Orders are delivered throughout Ukraine via Nova Poshta, and the company also exports to 16 European countries, with Germany, Poland, and Spain accounting for the largest export volumes.
Over the years, the company has established partnerships with approximately 200 sports clubs, supplying them with athletic gear, team uniforms, and custom-branded products.
Beyond its manufacturing operations, TANSEY actively supports the development of youth sports. The company organizes the "Open TANSEY Cup," a national Kyokushin Karate tournament. To date, three such tournaments have been held, attracting a total of up to 750 participants from various regions of Ukraine and establishing the event as a notable fixture in the Kyokushin Karate community.
Another key area of the company’s activity is the development of its own youth sports club, TanseyDojo, which offers programs in Kyokushin Karate, football, and cheerleading. The club trains children and young people, promotes a healthy lifestyle, and provides opportunities for sports participation and entry into national-level competitions.
Concurrently, TANSEY is investing in the digitalization of its business. The company has developed its own mobile app and is currently implementing AI solutions to automate workflows for managers and designers, as well as to streamline client communications.
