Congratulations Madelene Törnblom, Founder of Maya Delorez you are in the finals for the award Young Founder of the Year!

Maya Delorez is a Swedish brand with a clear vision: we want to offer a unique range of high-quality training clothes for active riders. We design riding clothes as riding clothes should be designed. After hundreds of years of equestrians having to ride in thick materials and wear breeches with an uncomfortable, rigid waist, we’re breaking new ground. It’s time to step up and adapt the clothes to the sport. The company is headquartered in Uppsala, Sweden and is selling to over 70 countries worldwide.
