Anamaria Ștefan Georgescu founded the Sophia brand in 2004 with a visionary ambition: to introduce a distinctive business concept in Romania, centered around the expansion of a national and international franchise network specializing in bespoke interior decoration. Our emphasis lies in delivering custom-made products and design consultation, with a particular focus on luxury curtains and sheers.

The Sophia journey commenced in Iași - Romania in 2004 and within a year, the inaugural franchise store opened its doors. Fast forward to today, we proudly oversee a network of 30 franchises across Romania and one in Miami, USA.

With 20 years of dedicated experience, we have consistently evolved to provide our partners with comprehensive support, ensuring the success of their businesses.

Between 2010 and 2013, our involvement in the UK market, coupled with participation in 16 international fairs across Paris, Milan, London, Dubai and the USA, played a pivotal role in establishing the global presence of the Sophia brand.
This period of engagement not only heightened our international recognition but also provided invaluable insights that allowed us to refine and tailor the franchise business concept to perfection.
