Hakim Model Management

Founded in Iceland in the mid 90ies by Asta Kristjansdottir, formerly a model herself, Eskimo sparked out in 1998 to search more "dottirs" in Russia's Wild East: Siberia. Their main office in Tomsk is overlooking scouting activities in Omsk, Novosibirsk, Barnaul, Krasnojarsk, Chelyabinsk, Ekaterinburg, Perm, and Ufa. They focus on primary scouting at schools, and have gained a reputation for being - yes - very selective, but developing and launching in turn new talent quickly and at the highest level.
In early 2001, they opened doors in Slovakia. They consider this step as the move towards true internationalization of their business and as the bridgehead for further expansion in Central Europe. From Bratislava their van Alice systematically travels the country to make sure that they don't miss any unpolished diamond not even in the most remote.
Also in 2001, they touched the shores of Rio de Janeiro … and settled. They eventually moved further South to Florianopolis with the intention to be closer to the fertile scouting grounds in Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Caterina and Parana.
In September 2002 they made a strategic investment in Bohemia Model Management, a well established agency in Prague.
