About Recontour
At Recontour, we acquire and expand high-potential small-sized brands, creating a long-term profitable legacy. Led by a team of passionate founders with a deep ecommerce background and marketplaces expertise, we aim to develop a new standard on e-commerce defined by excellence, dedication and trustworthiness. Recontour has completed an institutionally-backed Seed Round and is focused on rapidly growing its portfolio and team.
Recontour is strategically focused on small (<$1.5M in sales) acquisition targets and accelerates their growth across a broad range of high-growth platforms and geographies. We are currently managing a portfolio of 6 brands and actively selling them across North America and Europe.
And this is where you come in:
