New retail service goes live

Yourbrandspace.com is a new free service aimed at enabling retailers to source fashion brands

all year round. The subscription service created by Samantha Bleasby, former Event Director of Pure London, and Louisa Valvano, former Global Marketing Director of WGSN, is the only online platform that enables buyers to source product 365 days a year.

The service is launching with a mixture of quality brands from womenswear, menswear, accessories and footwear, from small and niche brands through to larger global companies including Badgley Mischka, Bolongaro Trevor, Miss Sixty, Renee London, Sticky Fingers, Day 22, and WeSC.

The site allows retailers to easily search for product by brand, product type, season, price-range and country. Buyers can build collections and create wish lists of products they wish to stock and contact the different brands all in a click of a button. The aim of the service is to help retailers find both new brands to stock but also allow them to more readily view some of their existing suppliers’ products, as well as help with both forward order/short order and in-season/stock buying.

Barry Laden MBE, CEO of The Laden Showroom and Renee London said: “It's a no brainer really; yourbrandspace puts buyers in touch with designers at the click of a mouse. It is likely to revolutionise the way wholesale buying is done, the way online stores have already made their mark on retail. Speeding up the process for buying, saving massively on carbon footprint by reducing the reliance on visiting shows and helping British designers expand throughout the UK and overseas, is a win-win for everyone."
