My mom was a successful retail entrepreneur who owned a small chain of lingerie stores, and she knew how much I wanted to build something of my own. She saw a need for a gentle wash that could properly care for delicate, Lycra-based garments—and encouraged me to create it.
That idea became my first company, starting from my Montreal apartment during my final year of university. Before long, I was driving around Toronto with the Yellow Pages, selling laundry detergent out of the trunk of my car to any business willing to give me a chance.
My mom believed in me before Forever & Ever even existed. 30 years later, we’re still here.
