Locally owned and operated retailers are the lifeblood of the city. They are our go-to shop for supporting local artisans and makers of all types. Connecting craftsmen with the best shops to showcase their wares has gotten more and more complicated in recent years with the continued growth of mega platforms and influx of foreign made goods. In the last couple of years an exciting new platform has stepped in to meet this growing need. Faire is an industry disrupter that seeks to be the one-stop shop for wholesale.

Faire was founded on the belief that the future of retail is local. Seeing the growing trend of shoppers looking for local products the founders of Faire wanted to create a pathway for artisans to get their products on local shelves. Helping entrepreneurs chase their dreams, Faire was built to connect the shopkeeper with artisans in an online wholesale marketplace. For the retailers they offer straight forward financial terms and logistics to help with planning and protecting the bottom line. Their retailers enjoy getting the bargaining price and customer service that the other guys only give to the large brands.

Meanwhile the featured brands on their site benefit from powerful sales, marketing, and analytic tools. These give the makers, creators, and dreamers a chance to simplify their wholesale business and focus on what they love doing: creating awesome products. At Better Man Beard, we love the freedom to focus on new products and making the highest quality beard balm and oils. Having a shop on Faire lets us do just that. Not only do vendors get to see the products we offer beautifully represented on Faire’s site, they also get to learn about our business and philosophy. Being able to tell our story is important to not only let our vendors know the passion behind our products but also equips the shop owner with the info they need to best serve their customers.

Faire has already connected over 150,000 local retailers with thousands of emerging and well established brands, we could not be happier to join that list. Faire’s easy to use site supports both sellers and buyers and is contributing to and supporting the movement to Shop Local. The future is local, and Faire is at the forefront of leading the commerce connection.

We are excited to see where our relationship wit Faire takes us. We love supporting local shops and are excited to be getting our Better Man Beard products to more customers who value local, handmade, and naturally crafted accessories for any beard. We have always thought outside the box to build this business and brand and Faire is a perfect partner for entrepreneurs looking for long term success. Check us out on Faire and take a look at what they do for yourself. We are excited to connect with even more customers and continue our mission to help every man get a stronger, better-smelling beard.
