Andrei Moiseevich Simanovsky's biography began in July 1960. He was born in the city of Sverdlovsk renamed Ekaterinburg.
Nothing is known about the ancestors of the Russian-Jewish nationality of the public. Most likely, they were ordinary citizens who served as the country who survived the October Revolution and the Great Patriotic War.
As a child, Andrei did not differ in talents and abilities. At least in an interview that the entrepreneur often gave reporters of popular Russian publications, nothing was said about this. The boy went to a regular school throughout the last time, and in his free time he played with friends in hide and seek, catch-up and football.
Whether due to the difficult financial situation in the family, or because of the lack of knowledge, Simanovsky, receiving a certificate of secondary education, instead of entering the university went to work. The beginning of an employment career coincided with a call to the ranks of the Soviet Armed Forces.
In the army, the future entrepreneur served in the Communications Office, where the ability to enjoy the ABC Morse was required. The specialized battalion took a soldier with a well-developed musical hearing, others were hard to transfer the stream of endless points and dash on the paper.
It turned out that it was possible to develop the abilities that did not get from nature would be possible thanks to persistent training. To succeed and get the post of the younger commander, Andrei, sacrificing a dream and meal, engaged in more than 10 hours every day.
Demobilized, the young man engaged in looking for work. When the first entrepreneurs, Simanovsky, who did not have a certain profession, thought to create their own business appeared in the country in the country of independent states. He put a maximum effort to join the company's strengths of this.
Business
In his youth, Andrei organized a mini-enterprise for the repair of shoes and for two years she tried to master the secrets of crafts, traditionally transmitted by inheritance. As a result, the tenant of a room of 5 for 2 meters "was unwound" and began to earn a monthly to $ 3 thousand.In his free time, a novice businessman studied the needs of the Russian market. He realized that cheap goods imported from abroad were enjoyed with great demand. The easiest way to multiply the state was trading with China, so Simanovsky developed a rapid activity on the establishment of links with the Asian country.
At the startup, the native of Yekaterinburg was working alone. A couple of times a month he made flights between the capital of the Urals and the city of Hangzhou. Then the man hired employees engaged in the selection and dispatch of goods, and concluded wholesale contracts with a number of private foreign firms.
Watching the global transformations and the speed with which the infrastructure changed and new fundamental objects were created, Andrei Moiseevich, who spent 6 years in the PRC, created his own trading company.

The team spirit and a special atmosphere at the enterprise were created by the fulfillment of the morning hymn, dining meetings with sports stars, film and television - Vladimir Solovyov, Pavel Datsyuk or Grigory Leps, - organized joint leisure and mass allocating enterprises in the evenings.
Simanovsky, who is a born head of the Western type, did not tolerate and now does not tolerate a negligence attitude to work. Not all new employees "Sima Lenda" are withstanding tense rhythm.
In ordinary members of the corporation do not like from morning to evening, moving along the corridors with the job instructions prescribed by job descriptions, photographed on a horse placed in the central office, and look at the program Nikita Mikhalkov "Besgon" weekly. However, salaries capable of presenting a seedless existence are forced to fulfill the whims of Andrei Moiseyevich, harshly relating to the established rules and merciless to himself and others.
