From the founder

Stitchmark is a small men's knitwear label — six core pieces, made in a family-run factory near Porto. We sell direct from stitchmark.com and do limited drops.

Trailing 12-month revenue is €640k with a 38% contribution margin. Repeat purchase rate is 41% in 18 months. Our email list (28k) and SMS list (12k waitlist) do most of the work.

I started this with my brother in 2021. He moved to a fund job and I want to return to product work. The brand is healthy but needs a real merchant operator now.

Growth opportunities

  • Wholesale (3 boutiques in inbound now)
  • Women's line — survey demand strong
  • Paid social — barely tested

Risks & considerations

  • Single-factory dependency
  • FX exposure (USD buyers, EUR cost base)
  • Drop-driven revenue is lumpy
