Faire

Jeff Kolovson, COO of online wholesale marketplace Faire, has helped to create a vibrant community that champions independent businesses while bridging the divide between digital and bricks-and-mortar. Kolovson and his co-founders launched Faire, which connects independent brands with independent retailers, in 2017. He tells us why having a values-oriented mission might be the most important thing in an entrepreneur’s toolkit.
