Who is Divbrands?

Divbrands is a global, remote-working e-commerce company. We focus on data-driven decision-making to launch unique D2C apparel brands to specific audiences across the globe. Because of our intense research and targeting process, we only launch when we know a brand will succeed. With divbranders from different countries, we embody a company culture that is vibrant, diverse, playful, and performance-driven.

We research, develop, and build our own brands online. We specialize in creative production with regional creative hubs that make agile, data-backed creatives that convert sales. Each brand, product, and piece of creative content is "glocalised" for our various local, regional, and nationally diverse customers around the globe. We believe that online shopping behaviour never stays the same.

We focus on algorithmic predictions and machine learning technology to forecast demand and product engagement across categories. Traditional brands, as we know them, are in transition. Consumers face a rapidly changing social, economic, and retail environment, demanding that brands become versatile, data-based, and driven by actual user behaviour. Divbrands has been doing this for over five years - our mission is to achieve the most satisfying e-commerce experience for the modern shopper, wherever they might be.
