Sosandar, one of the fastest growing fashion brands in the UK, creating quality, trend-led products for women of all ages, have a couple of interesting developments – a new wholesale agreement with Sainsbury’s and a new circular partnership with Worn By Us.
Sosandar and Sainsbury’s
Sosandar have announced that an agreement to sell a curated collection of its products through Sainsbury’s. A selected range will begin to be sold through Sainsbury’s during 2023, initially online only with selected stores planned later this year as Sainsbury’s increases its collaborations with fashion brands in order to provide new and existing customers with a broader selection of products. The initial product range will include best-selling styles from Sosandar’s high performing collection and accessories.
The partnership, which includes the Company’s first in-store presence, allows Sosandar to become a truly omnichannel retailer, further diversifying its route to market and increasing brand awareness across its target demographic, whilst driving growth sales and PBT.
The agreement with Sainsbury’s adds to existing online partnerships that Sosandar has with John Lewis, Marks and Spencer, Next, The Very Group and JD Williams. Sales to date from these partnerships have been extremely strong, with a record quarter delivered through third parties in Q3 FY23.
To be one of Sainsbury’s key fashion partners is an incredibly proud moment for us. In line with our objective to provide our large but underserved demographic with more opportunities to purchase our unique and diverse products, this elevates our strategy from pureplay to an omnichannel brand. We believe that being an omnichannel business enhances our brand equity, will accelerate growth in our market share and brand awareness, whilst also providing us with a wider breadth of quality potential partners internationally
