Dennis Donsker, President
Biography
Mr. Donsker has been in the International Trade business for the past 28 years. His expertise lies in his ability to adapt to different industry needs as the economic conditions of the world change. He has structured his business to work with companies around the globe and help satisfy their international trade, manufacturing and business goals.
Dennis began his career as a buyer for Grodins of San Francisco, an 80-store retail chain. He then served as buyer and merchandise manager for Macy’s San Francisco where he traveled extensively to Europe to develop and source specialized merchandise for the store in a department called “Lifestyle”.
He left Macy’s to become a partner and general manager for Dick Bruhn, a group of 14 men’s and women’s stores. Mr. Donsker’s expertise in advertising, buying, personnel and sales motivation helped the company grow an average of 63% per year during his five year tenure.
Dennis also founded Beverly Hills Polo Club, a lady and men’s sportswear and accessory company, which grew to $18 million in manufacturing volume and $15 million in licensing volume within a four year period.
Later in his career he served as Vice President and President of Ocean Pacific (OP) Sportswear, a world-renowned apparel company and then became President of Jimmy Z, a young men’s and women’s fashion sportswear company.
Having had extensive domestic and international manufacturing and sourcing experience, Dennis decided to open an international trading company in 1984 to help foreign buyers export merchandise made in the USA. In the years following, Laopan expanded to help U.S companies import products from abroad. In addition, Mr. Donsker has worked with the United States Department of Commerce to teach potential exporters, “How to Export for a Profit.”
Mr. Donsker is currently concentrating his time on helping companies develop their international trade opportunities, source their merchandise assortments and help market their products throughout the world.
