Inspired by Passion, Built for Change

Just one year ago, Tigoli was born out of a spark—an idea that took root and grew faster than we ever expected. What started as an experimental concept quickly became more than just a brand; it became a way of thinking, a way of doing, and a way of connecting. We found ourselves so captivated by Tigoli’s energy and vision that we knew our existing brand, Panda Loco, had to evolve.


So, we embraced change. We rebranded everything, fully committing to the Tigoli name and everything it represents. Tigoli isn’t just a new face; it's a fresh perspective on quality, creativity, and the drive to deliver products that people truly love. It’s about reinventing the familiar, and our journey has only just begun.


Today, Tigoli is here to inspire, transform, and bring people closer together through products that aren’t just used—they’re enjoyed, celebrated, and remembered. Here’s to the Tigoli way: a journey from curiosity to commitment, and from passion to purpose.

The World’s Most Unreliable, Infamously Useless Brand

Tigoli began on a 15-hour car journey—a delirious, laugh-filled brainstorm between myself, Ollie, and my good friend Tigger. Somewhere along the winding roads and long stretches of highway, we conjured up the concept for the most utterly useless and delightfully evil company imaginable. Tigoli, as we called it, would be infamous for producing products that, frankly, didn’t work… at all.

The Tigoli vision? To create items so flawed, they’d be legendary. Think pens that don’t write, rulers with bizarrely inaccurate measurements, clocks that skip hours, and flashlights that only work in daylight. Our imaginations ran wild. We joked that Tigoli’s sinister hand reached far back in history; the Tigoli steel stamp could even be found on the hull of the Titanic, and rumors swirled that Tigoli compasses were responsible for many a misled ship lost to the Bermuda Triangle.

But somewhere along that journey, a lightbulb clicked. We realized this ridiculous, “evil” brand concept was too good not to bring to life. Tigoli would be born—not as a simple brand but as a satire, a tongue-in-cheek tribute to everything useless, unreliable, and wonderfully absurd. We committed to creating Tigoli novelty products, each with its own quirks, flaws, and a twist of comedy, and we're cooking up some of the most hilariously dark backstories and “evil” corporate propaganda to roll out in 2025.

With a growing list of delightfully pointless products in the pipeline and a series of comical videos in the works, Tigoli is here to add a dash of mischief to the world—because, really, who doesn’t love a bit of playful chaos?
