ClearAngel Funds Sustainable Handbag Brand RISA Vancouver

RISA Vancouver was created out of determination, and we’re delighted that ClearAngel saw the potential in our brand” – Riddhima Sayal, co-founder, RISA Vancouver.

TORONTO (PRWEB) August 05, 2021

Clearco, the world’s largest e-commerce investor and the company revolutionizing the way founders grow their businesses, today announced that its ClearAngel program is funding RISA Vancouver, a womenswear brand creating sustainable, artisan-crafted upcycled leather handbags. The ClearAngel program provides early-stage founders with access to revenue share capital, data-driven advice, and Clearco’s extensive network of apps, agencies, and investors.

Founded by sisters Riddhima and Saloni Sayal, RISA Vancouver was established out of a passion for fashion and design. The duo moved from India to Vancouver during the pandemic, and were so determined to succeed that they began to sell their one-of-a-kind pieces door-to-door. RISA Vancouver is now available in 30 boutique stores across Western Canada and plans to launch on Wolf & Badger, a global online marketplace for independent brands.

“We’re proud to fund RISA Vancouver in its mission to provide women with sustainable, upcycled leather goods that they can wear with pride,” said Andrew D’Souza, CEO and co-founder, Clearco. “This latest investment reflects ClearAngel’s commitment to democratizing capital for women-owned brands.”

“RISA Vancouver was created out of determination, and we’re delighted that ClearAngel saw the potential in our brand,” said Riddhima Sayal, co-founder, RISA Vancouver. “With ClearAngel’s support, we can continue to grow our women-owned business and inspire the women of past and present who inspire us,” said Saloni Sayal, co-founder, RISA Vancouver.
