Danny De Cactus - Expert Profile and Services Overview
Entrepreneur
Schiedam, Netherlands
Introduction
Danny the Cactus, within walking distance of the cruise terminal. His colorful and fragrant store on Schilderstraat, an extension of Witte de Withstraat, is full of home accessories such as beautiful lamps and bowls, as well as fragrances, rugs, bags, belts, scarves, bracelets and... cacti. A true bazaar. The smell and what can be seen and bought are truly unique!
Fascinated by cultures in countries such as India, Thailand and Morocco, Danny started collecting items such as rugs, figurines and scented candles. '…and I got the idea to open a shop. It worked. And you know what's so special? I have been walking happily to my store for 25 years now, where the people who come in are also happy.'
Danny de Cactus is open five days a week; from Wednesday to Sunday. Everyone who buys something from Danny de Cactus will receive a scented sachet. 'A scent is an experience, because it offers you a memory of the moment you first smelled this scent.'
