The history of VARIA System GmbH and MANGOLI:
From small service provider to wholesaler for hobby and model building products
Sometimes the best ideas come from a simple vision – and this is also the case with us. It all began in 2000 with a small software development and hosting company. At the time, nobody would have thought that this idea would one day develop into an internationally active company with a huge range of products in the hobby, board game and model building sectors and a worldwide dealer network.
But first things first: What began as a pure service provider in the field of server solutions and software development has developed steadily. From 2013, when the head office in Chemnitz was firmly established, we have increasingly specialized in the distribution of hobby items, board games and model making products and have been a permanent partner for retailers and end customers ever since.
One thing has been particularly important to us right from the start: flexibility. Whether for end customers or dealers – mangoli doesn’t just offer products, but tailor-made solutions. And when you buy from us, you get more than just a good product. We offer forecast orders (yes, you order now and pick up later!) and guarantee fast delivery thanks to our efficient warehouse processes. No long waiting times, no stress. Everything runs quickly and reliably.
The secret of our success? Quite simply, we have always asked ourselves the question: “How can we support our customers even better?” This has made us a partner that not only delivers, but also thinks outside the box. Whether special models for model making, exclusive board game novelties or accessories – with us you will find everything your hobby heart desires. And even though online trading and fluctuating currencies are a constant challenge for us, we have made it our mission to continuously improve our processes so that you are always well supplied.
Today, we are not only known for our wide selection of products, but also for our ability to react flexibly to new trends and constantly add new, exciting brands to our range. At mangoli you will find the right solution, whether you are a passionate model builder, a new board game fan or looking for creative accessories for your hobby.
We look forward to being a part of your journey – be it as a partner in model making, board gaming or as a reliable supplier for all your hobby needs. Welcome to mangoli, where innovation meets experience and service is paramount.
