==History==
On a trip to Denmark in the late 1980s, Mandy Cabot and Peter Kjellerup came across clogs that worked well for their equestrian needs.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Dansko – Interesting Facts About The Popular Shoe Company )〕 The couple operated a farm where they worked as horse trainers and dressage instructors.〔 After bringing back clogs for their farm staff on several trips to Denmark, Cabot and Kjellerup decided to establish Dansko in 1990.〔〔 Dansko has since added several shoe styles, including sandals, boots, heels, flats, and more types of clogs.〔 ''Inc. Magazine'' named Dansko in its list of 500 fastest-growing private companies in 1999 and 2000.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Dansko )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Some Serious Footwear )〕 In an effort to increase operational efficiency, Dansko opened a new, larger facility with 46 Kiva robots to assist with processing order fulfillment needs in November 2012.〔〔〔 The new facility also lowered the distance which employees had to walk during their workday.
The Dansko Foundation, a non-profit run by employees, was founded in 2003.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Dansko Foundation )〕 In 2005, Dansko launched its Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), which fosters employee ownership.〔〔 The company was able to buy back all previously-issued stock and operate as a completely employee owned company by 2012.〔〔 In 2007, Dansko started selling beyond North America, with vendors in Australia, New Zealand, Asia and Europe.〔 Dansko is sold at 2,500 retailers which include department stores, shoe stores, and online retailers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Dansko )〕
