OUR STORY
OUR STORY
Traveling the globe, I've had the incredible opportunity to assist top brands like Mexx, Ecko Unltd., Levis and WeSc in selling their products to major retailers. But life took an unexpected turn when my last gig ended abruptly. Little did I know, it was the best thing that could have happened. It pushed me to start my own business, driven by a simple goal: creating products people love. I've always been passionate about creating, and that fire won't ever fade.
What makes Bennkai Brands even more special our dedicated team behind it. Jessica, my wife, has been my rock from day one, supporting me through thick and thin. She's not just my life partner, but an integral part of our company. And then there's Kai, our son, whose name is one half of the inspiration behind BENNKAI. Together, we form a close-knit team that's been building these brands from the ground up.
Now, 7 years in and the teams growing and excited to be expanding our horizons. We believe in the power of collaboration and are excited to welcome new talent to join us on this journey. Our shared goal is not just to create a brand, but to forge a legacy, leaving a lasting impact on the world.
"Ben and his team at Bennkai were a pleasure to work with. As a buyer, you’re always looking for brands that can innovate on concepts, provide competitive pricing, and deliver on time. Bennkai consistently executed on all three facets, and not only made my job easier but made our customers happier as well."
