Yiannimize

For many of our French-speaking readers, this name will mean nothing. In England, it opens almost every door.

Yianni Charalambous was born in London to Greek Cypriot parents. He grew up in the north of the city and, at a very young age, set up a car wrapping workshop there: Yiannimize, in Enfield. His first notable client was an Arsenal footballer. Word of mouth did the rest: players, then artists, then collectors.

In 2014, he launched a YouTube channel to document the workshop's work. Today, it has over two million subscribers, and British television has produced two series based on it.

But to reduce Yianni to a content creator would be a misreading. He is a business leader, and a real one at that. Around the workshop, he has built an ecosystem: media divisions, an event business, and two unmissable events across the Channel. First, the Yiannimize Grand Tour, which brings together around forty supercars and their owners on Europe's most beautiful roads; we were a sponsor in 2026. Second, the Leicester Motor Show, where we were present in 2025.

Our meeting, however, hinged on a single sentence.

It was Jon, our best English client, who first told us about Yianni. He knows him. He has his contact. He offered to connect us. We could have politely declined and done nothing, which is the usual fate of this kind of proposition. We chose to trust him and engage in discussion, all together, without knowing where it would lead us.

Less than a year later, Jon and Tymothy were driving side-by-side on the Yiannimize Grand Tour, and we unveiled the FL-One Yiannimize Grand Tour there.

Some collaborations are signed in offices. This one was born because a client wanted to introduce us to someone, and because we decided to follow through.
