Calling all designers & clothing brands!
I have an existing small retail chain & looking for 2/3 brands to partner with & share spaces in the next year. I currently have two stores in the Bay Area & would like to start by collaborating on one location. Both stores are located in prime retail locations with a great following of loyal customers.
Who’s ready for bigger opportunities? Tired of pop ups & trade shows? Join us. :)
Retail vs E-commerce? Which is more profitable?
Logic: Over 15 years of being in this industry & working with billion-dollar brands to start-ups, I’ve found that e-commerce has become a more expensive acquisition cost per garment/product vs. leasing a retail space.
For example: On average, e-commerce brands spend 30% on acquisition cost of one item.
While the acquisition cost in a retail space can be only a few dollars per item. For example: If you have a $3,000 retail lease & stock hundreds of items, you are only spending a few dollars per garment, which you completely control. Also you would only need to sell $100’s worth of products a day to clear cost.
$100 × 30 days = $3000
So my conclusion: I’m ready to expand, I’m ready to expand & would love to create a co-working retail space! Anyone interested have questions email or DM :)

Campaign: Week 1 Update!
It’s been one week since we launched our campaign, and we’re incredibly grateful for the support so far. Thanks to 16 generous donors, we’ve raised over $1,000. Every single dollar and message of encouragement means the world to us and has an immediate impact.
While we still have a long way to go to keep our doors open through the end of the year, your support has helped us make it through this month. For that, we’re beyond thankful—and feeling hopeful.
We understand that not everyone can give financially, and that’s okay. You can still make a big difference by sharing our campaign with friends, family, or on social media. Every bit of visibility helps, and you never know who might be moved to contribute and want to get involved. One share or one donation truly can change everything.
Thank you for being part of this with us!
