Summary: On the 47th episode of the Loose Threads Podcast, a show about the intersection of consumer, retail and commerce, I talk with Vanessa Stofenmacher, the founder of Vrai & Oro, a direct to consumer jewelry company pioneering the use of sustainably grown diamonds. Vanessa started the company after seeking out more affordable and transparent fine jewelry. This quest took her on a unexpected journey, leading to a serious partnership with company at the forefront of sustainable diamonds, and now a booming online brand with a growing offline footprint. I really enjoyed talking with Vanessa about her journey building her company, and how strategic partners can sometimes take a product to a whole new level. — Show Notes — Vrai and Oro https://vraiandoro.com/ Edited by George Drake Jr. — About Loose Threads — http://LooseThreads.com Join the newsletter: http://eepurl.com/buLQY9 Twitter: http://twitter.com/loosethreadscom The Loose Threads Podcast explores the intersection of consumer, retail and commerce.
