Faire runs an online wholesale marketplace where independent retailers buy apparel, gifts, homewares, food, and other products from brands to stock their stores. Retailers search by category, compare wholesale prices, and order from multiple suppliers, while brands manage catalogs, customer messages, and orders through seller tools. Faire coordinates payments between the two sides, and brands typically ship merchandise directly to buyers. The business earns marketplace commissions and payment processing fees, with tools that support purchasing and connect wholesale orders with retailers' store systems. Faire was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California.
