Yourbrandspace meets 1000 buyers mark

Yourbrandspace.com, the first B2B virtual showroom for

fashion retailers and buyers alike to connect and view products from hundreds of brands 365 days a year has now reached a grand total 1000 signed up buyers mark, from their launch in December 2011. An impressive tally for their first six months of trading.

Buyers across independents, online and department stores are making the most of this niche and free service, by signing up in the UK and across Europe, Canada, States and Australia. Around 75% of the subscribed buyers are from the UK ranging from Womenswear, Menswear, Footwear and Lingerie Stores. Notable names include Fenwicks, Amazon, Asos, and Galerie Lafayette.

Louisa Valvano, director of the site, puts the early success down to the need to find new ways to shop in this climate; “We wanted to provide a free service for retailers that helps them in this tough climate. There is a great deal of pressure on their time and budget and it is hard to meet the constant demand to source new products and connect with existing suppliers more easily.”
