About Us
From when we sold our very first bra way back in 2005, to today when we sell one approximately every 30 seconds, passion and playfulness is at the heart of everything we do.
Our direct-to-consumer operation is growing by over 50%, but that’s not the only thing about Pour Moi that’s expanding! Our range has grown along with us to include lingerie, swimwear, beachwear, clothing, sportswear, nightwear, and hosiery, with exciting new developments planned for future seasons.
With our buying, design, technical, merchandising, marketing, and sales departments based in our sunny Brighton offices, we have a blue-chip wholesale partner portfolio that includes M&S, Next, Very & John Lewis.
Our predicted annual turnover is £36 million, making us one of the leading brands in lingerie and swimwear. With sales increasing year on year, it means we need more brilliant people who share our passion, to join in the next part of our story.
