FashionUnited is an international B2B fashion platform created in 1999 by CEO Lennard Minderhou.

History

[edit]

The idea of founding FashionUnited came to Lennard Minderhoud in the late 1990s after he realized that “there was little information about fashion on the internet.”[1] The platform offers fashion news, fashion jobs, the statistics of the industry and a Fashion Education Network created in 2010.[2] The headquarter of FashionUnited is located in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The platform is active in more than 25 countries and the website is available in 16 languages.[3]

In the second half of 2014, FashionUnited changed its logo and redesigned all the FashionUnited websites.[4]
