Company Overview
Helping brands and retailers enhance the distinct identity of local communities.
About Faire
Faire is a leading online wholesale marketplace built on the belief that the future is local. Independent retailers worldwide generate more revenue than retail giants like Walmart and Amazon combined, yet individually, they face challenges competing with these massive entities. Using technology, data, and machine learning, Faire connects small businesses globally, helping them discover top products to sell in their stores.
By empowering independent businesses, Faire drives positive economic impact in communities worldwide. If you’re passionate about innovation and supporting local entrepreneurs, join us in powering the shop-local movement.
