About Us

We own the sweet spot

There is a new high-value intersection in retail.
It’s where proven direct-to-consumer products meet traditional brick-and-mortar retail.

Project Retail dominates this attractive emerging market, with

in-depth experience both online and in the store:

25 years of collective wholesale experience, resulting in brick-and-mortar
sales of more than $100 million across more than 20,000 stores
10 years of e-commerce know-how, accounting for sales of $50 million
across multiple platforms

Why Retail?

Brick-and-mortar is dead!
Long live brick-and-mortar!

E-commerce may be all the rage. But brick-and-mortar stores still represent 90% of retail sales in the United States.

For direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands, the opportunities to increase sales and market penetration are almost limitless. You’ve already validated your product online. Your reviews, sales, customer list … all of these provide proof-of-concept that retailers love to see.

By taking your products to traditional brick-and-mortar retailers, you can:

Reduce your dependency on any single platform
Build your brand’s visibility on physical store shelves
Leverage the power of bulk orders made by retailers, to help you negotiate better terms and pricing with your suppliers
Improve your cash flow and explore new funding options not available to DTC businesses

It’s the ultimate diversification strategy. Leverage what you’ve already built and create inroads with new customer bases.
