Wolfgang started as apprentice to his father, where he learned the mechanics behind of basic's in doing business. Learning from an early age, Wolfgang studied the value in not just working hard, but the concept of working productively. This mindset of starting early, finishing late and completing every task of the day by days end, was a no simple discipline to master, but this is exactly what gave in the working ethos needed to create a multi-sector industry giant as his group if companies are regarded as today. Sacrifices of not being able to become a social butterfly, allowed for more strategic focused skill sets to be applied in day-to-day real life applications of doing business. A trail and error school of hard knocks experience over his adolescent years would both harden and shape Wolfgang into a real life business entrepreneur.
At the age of just 16 years old, Wolfgang had started his first solo business, following the family trade within the flooring industry. Where he would have his first real chance to stand on his experienced business grooming to show what he could do, and do he did, turning over £1,000,000.00 (One million pounds) in his first year of business. This was the first glimpse of what was to come in the coming years.
Wolfgang later at the age of just 18 years old, took over the family business, as his father moved to the Gulf to chase new ambitions. This saw massive turnovers achieved in the values of tens of millions of pounds annually, before eventually turning his eye on what was happening with his fathers Gulf business developments, where he eventually decided to close shop in the UK, and take part in what was considered a gold rush in the Middle Eastern oil rich construction boom.
Wolfgang relocated in 2008, moving onto the Palm Jumeirah, setting up the first of its kind manufacturing and timber designer company, second only to his own fathers business as was his only actual competitor in the region.
Building what then became the Gulf's largest timber factory, and bespoke manufacturers of wood design products in the Middle East, Wolfgang employed over thousands of skilled industry experts, attracting and importing top talent from all over the globe, where he was regularly asked to give talks, business advise and representation on a global scale for UK Trade and Investments at trade fairs and industry leaders meetings. Wolfgang was also celebrated in the News for his unbelievable rapid growth of accomplishments both in National Newspapers and on the radio on many occasions.
IN MORE RECENT EVENTS: Wolfgang had also sought to become involved in several new sectors of business, including construction, property and financial services around the concept of asset liquidation to take advantage of the highly volatile markets in the Gulf. In 2019, after several cycles of booms and crashes, Wolfgang decided to return back to the Uk to develop this latest mechanism of sharp trading practices in asset liquidation.
Wolfgangs most exciting venture came in the name of Romanichal Asset Liquidations Specialists. A brand that would forever change the way people did business in distressed asset acquisitions. Wolfgang used his extensive industry knowledge to buy, trade and third-party liquidate inventory of bankrupt stocks, job-lots and clearance materials. This new distressed acquisition model saw an unprecedented growth, with unlimited potential, paving the way for even more spin off divisions to be formed under the brand such as Romanichal Metal & Environmental Managements, Romanichal Mobile Homes Division, RALS Floorcoverings Division, USA Trade Bridge, Kyoto Furniture & Kyoto Distribution, W Douglas Private Investments Family Office, and last but not least the Wolf Mindset business Academy. These new divisions are mostly separate entities legally, but are based upon the core principle of the sharp trading business practices that Wolfgang is industry renown for.
Recent main stream media picked up on the ever growing business model, now reporting £115,000,000.00 (one hundred and fifteen million pounds) of stock positions held in a variety of different sectors inventory types and properties. It is widely speculated that the group's founder's intentions is to offer investors the opportunity to join him on this journey with possible IPO being floated in the coming year, with asset and stock holdings expected to reach £250,000,000.00 (Two hundred and fifty million pounds) in the next twelve to twenty four months based on current model projections and current trading experienced positions being now reported. TV outlets such as GB News has regularly used Wolfgang's credentials to offer economic reviews and expert commentary as a business leader on his experienced advise. Wolfgang's stories have been reported on in countless MSM publications such as The Business Influencer, The Monaco Voice, The Daily Mail, The Express, The Guardian, The Sun, The Star, Gulf News, The Mirror, The New York Post, Metro, My Londoner, The Telegraph, Gulf Injustice Podcast, The Times of Isreal, The Travellers Times, Middle East Eye, Daily Star, The Mercury, The US Sun, My London News, The New Arab, Etc Etc Etc with too many to list..
Wolfgang new moves to continue this rapid expansion model, moving into the acquisition of fine art, luxury jewellery, super prime real estate, industrial development projects and the hospitality investments. When asked for comment though, Wolfgang says; "The most exciting new venture is the Wolf Mindset Business Academy, a real platform to help others reach their dream and ambitions too".
Wolfgang Douglas is a British Romanichal Gypsy by ethnicity. His family background is made up from a small, but tight-knit inter-married group of highly recognised entrepreneurial minded business leaders, as have in recent times become very well known for their collective business success stories and unique ability to harness pooled resources as a group. Friends & Family members of this group include industry renown names such as Alfie Best etc, of whom Wolfgang keeps closely connected to. Wolfgang's close circle of Friends & Family, are highly regarded as a millionaire or even billionaire level of financial status. This has given a significant advantage to Wolfgang in his business activities and private investments projects.
Wolfgang Douglas is also a significant contributor to several community based human rights projects, surrounding the further development of subject's around business development topics, start-up program's, upscaling business integration and financial empowerment programs.
Wolfgang was married in 2004 from within his family community, and has three children. As a practicing christian, Wolfgang strongly believes in a very traditionally and conservative approach in all of his private and business practices generally.
A passionately proud Londoner, Wolfgang resides in one of London's most prestigious residential areas, South Kensington SW7, living only a stone's throw away from his main place of business as predominately based in Mayfair, London's most prestigious investments hubs.
Born in St Jones Wood, Central West-London on February 18th, 1987, Wolfgang originally was raised in the quite suburbs of Hertfordshire, North London, in a small village called goose green. The property owned by his father, an equaqlly successful business man, was originally owned by the Woolworth family, a famous property in the area known for its grand historic value and opulence in size and position. Later moving to Sewardstonebury in Essex during his early adulthood. Then leaving the UK to emigrate to the United Arab Emirates where he lived for around 12 years, also during this period investing significant amounts of time in the United States and China as well. Wolfgang only retuned to the United Kingdom in 2019, where he remains to this day.
Wolfgang has been known for his extensive collections in art, cars and properties, whereas his homes have been featured in many publications and used as demonstration of opulence and luxury living.
Wolfgang's family keep homes all over the world, but he would firmly stand on the fact that in his own words; "you can take the Londoner out of London, but never the London our of the Londoner".
Wolfgang is a dedicated supporter & vocal advocate to the Human Rights of the Romani-Gypsy Movement including the funding, supporting of various rallies and demonstrations and organising of social awareness events and campaigns, including efforts to promote parliamentary bills of rights to be debated and passed in the UK Houses of Parliament. Wolfgang has worked with many other Humanitarian Workers and organisations including (The Traveler Movement) as well as various organisations and charities on behalf of his communities policies and initiatives that he felt needed his support. Wolfgang has held serval economic development projects and events to promote and encourage people from his community to create opportunities to participate in the economic growth and integration process with entrepreneurship programs and initiatives. This is also something that Wolfgang has personally supported and heavily contributed to as part of his ethos on developing and implementing economic prosperity on behalf of Romani-Gypsies throughout the UK. Wolfgang has been labelled as a “Puckering-Rom” translated into English as a (accepted spokesperson for the Gypsy community), in areas at parliamentary levels, all the way to council meetings or as a liaison’s officer to bridge indifferences between the UK government and parties of concern. Wolfgang believes that the Romani-Gypsy people have been under represented, in many cases unfairly repressed and discriminated against unjustly, of which he has decided to seek professional assimilation and development of his community to be recognised and represented in a proper and inclusive fashion inline with the UK governments official said Human Rights Commission.
Wolfgang has been an avid supporter & Christian volunteer, assisting with Bible Study of Children’s Education (Sunday School) as is dedicated to the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This included works in Christian missions, community awareness champaign’s and other religious educational programs. The Church of the Annunciation, Marble Arch, is a Church of England parish church in the Marble Arch district of London, England.
As a practicing Christian, Wolfgang also believes in spending time on 'giving back' supporting projects of the church and is a benefactor & patron of the London Oratory in South Kensington, of which has been considered his local church and most frequented.
While living in the UAE, Wolfgang was responsible for the arrangement of several larger scale Christian missions to spread awareness in a islamic part of the world that unfortunately has strict censorship laws over the topics of religion freedoms, this lead to a 'public disturbance order' applied on him, as the UAE authorities do not tolerate any form of religious promotion or free speech on the topic, other then within their own approved applications under islam. Wolfgang was a regular attendee and benefactor nevertheless and continued his efforts to carry out Christian focused support charity missions and organised events. Wolfgang was himself Christened in St Jones Wood, central West-London, and attended a Catholic primary school until the age of 10 years old when he left the mainstream eduction system. Wolfgang's family are all practicing Christians, many of whom have become ministers, deacons and are responsible for the organisation of large scale Christian awareness missions all over the United Kingdom, but also around the world.
Wolfgang is an avid blues fan of Chelsea Football Club. With three generations before him of supporting his local team, this is something that he considers a part of his character, a way to spend quality time with father and son as the traditional continues. Wolfgang has a long history with the sport of boxing, as part of family traditions he was thrown into the ring from the age of just 10 years old, holding an impressive inter-club and ABA record, he believes that physical sports is a healthy way to condition not just the body, but also the mind, to becoming a well rounded and disciplined person overall. Wolfgang has sponsored several young athletes in this sport and considers this a great way to look at life saying; "Life is like a boxing match, sometimes you get hurt and even loose, but its those hard knock you get up from, that make you stronger and more resilient in life as a person".
Wolfgang and his family have also been highly celebrated in the world of horse racing, where they have owned many famous racing horses only equaled to the jockeys riding them, including the likes of Frankie Frankie Dettori and many others. Apart of the vintage group, Wolfgang's passion for horse racing saw him in attendance in the owners boxes of world class meetings such as at Ascot Races, York Races and Newmarket Races etc, as well as international race meetings in places such as the Dubai world cup. Wolfgang keeps a heavily invested interest in the sport and continues to play an active role in group participation and sponsorships.
The biggest challenge of Wolfgang's life came from when he was forced to fight for the freedom of his father 'Albert Douglas', a story that would see both his father and himself eventually vindicated from a unprecedented miscarriage of justice in a landmark United Nations ruling, on Arbitrary Detention surrounding financial entrapment. It was ruled in favour of Wolfgang's case at the UN Human Rights WGAD, as a victory that eventually brought Albert home, as was due to the fact that the UAE had broken more then 10+ International human rights laws in their attempt to hold the wealthy family under hostage in this blatant disregard for international laws of its financial entrapment motivated case, where it highlighted the scrupulous Emirati bad-actors position that had been able to manipulate local laws in the draconian UAE legal system that Wolfgang describes as: "broken by design". The story was extensively covered by virtually every main stream media outlet in the UK, and The Guardian is expected to release a long read piece in the coming weeks. Wolfgang has demonstrated that victims can fight back, and now works tirelessly to bring awareness to the dangers of doing business in the Gulf as he continues to take this fight to the halls of Westminster in changing the laws on travel advise to the UAE and Gulf region.
Without doubt this case continues to progress into what is seen as complete reversal of positions, from defensive to offensive legal counterattacking roles, of which Wolfgang has confirmed significant resources in creating awareness and legal action against the UAE.
