Faire is an online wholesale marketplace built on the belief that the future is local — independent retailers around the globe are doing more revenue than Walmart and Amazon combined, but individually, they are small compared to these massive entities.

Picture your favorite boutique in town — we help them discover the best products from around the world to sell in their stores.
