The Story

Founded in 2011, Poshmark started with a simple yet powerful idea in Manish Chandra's garage. Along with co-founders Tracy Sun, Gautam Golwala, and Chetan Pungaliya, Chandra envisioned a platform that would revolutionize how people buy and sell fashion. The inspiration came from seeing the potential of the iPhone 4 to create meaningful connections in the shopping experience.

What They Do

Poshmark is not just another e-commerce platform – it's a social marketplace that brings together shopping and community. Think of it as a place where social media meets shopping, allowing users to buy, sell, and discover fashion, home goods, and accessories. With over 80 million users , the platform has become a go-to destination for both casual sellers and entrepreneurial individuals looking to build their own digital boutiques.

Growth & Achievements

• Started as a fashion-only platform and successfully expanded into home goods and electronics
• Raised over $160 million in venture funding
• Achieved a successful IPO in January 2021
• Recently launched innovative features like AI-powered visual search and livestream shopping
• Built a vibrant community of millions of buyers and sellers across the country

Today, under CEO Manish Chandra's leadership, Poshmark continues to innovate in the social commerce space, blending technology with community to create a unique shopping experience. The platform's success story is a testament to how combining social connections with commerce can create a powerful marketplace that resonates with modern consumers.
