In response to growing demand for new minority beauty and fashion e-commerce businesses, Fashion Assembly offers short-term deals for spaces ranging from 100 to 2,500 square feet at its newly launched Arts District location. Moda Assembly gives business owners peace of mind and allows them to focus on growth instead of bad spaces, bad locations and expensive long-term leases.
Founders of Fashion Assembly, Brian Pearsona franchise development broker, and Anje Collinsa former celebrity entertainment publicist, collaborated to launch Coco Blue Shoes, a successful shoe brand in The angels, during the pandemic. Having experienced the challenges that come with running an e-commerce business from home, they understand the difficulties of growing an e-commerce business first-hand.
“Our goal is to help our members grow their businesses and reach their ideal customers around the world by providing them with the operational resources and knowledge they need,” says the co-founder and CEO of Fashion Assembly. Brian Pearson. Further, he added, “There is strength in numbers. As a result, Fashion Assembly gives our members the space and support they require to compete with the big boys.”
Fashion Assembly offers combined warehousing, offices and production areas all under one roof to benefit small and diverse beauty and fashion businesses. Fashion Assembly members can grow and expand their businesses with the help of a flexible infrastructure. This includes everything from workspaces and warehouses to order management, fulfillment, marketing and public relations.
Businesses seeking Fashion Assembly membership are subject to an application process. The purpose of this method is to identify members who are serious about growing their brand. As a result, Fashion Assembly’s sole focus is on underrepresented groups in the beauty and fashion industry. Fashion Assembly will provide these individuals with the resources they need to succeed.
According to Anje Collins, Co-Founder and Creative Director, “there are many challenges when launching a brand created by a person of color.” “We started in our living room, a storage unit and two industrial locations and we’ve been through it all, so I understand how difficult and expensive it can be to run an e-commerce business.” All memberships are month-to-month and include amenities such as high-speed Internet, hosting services, community events, common spaces for members to socialize and network, and support for growth. Fashion Assembly members have access to direct-to-consumer business needs such as high-end doors, enterprise-grade equipment, shipping and pickup. There are also co-working spaces, conference rooms, showrooms and a photography studio available for use as needed.
Fashion Assembly is essentially a one-stop shop for beauty and fashion brands in e-commerce.
Because Fashion Assembly is about underrepresented groups in the beauty and fashion industry, it will provide these individuals with the resources they need to be successful.
