“Inspire joy by guiding others to discover extraordinary goods.”
Fancy is a technology platform consisting of Fancy.com and highly rated native mobile apps, connecting a global audience of influencers, brands, and shoppers around high-end, curated products. The company reached high volumes globally but suffered losses, before going through a restructuring in 2018, bringing it down to a much lower valuation while maintaining the company’s main assets. A new management team joined, including CEO Greg Spillane, a seasoned entrepreneur that already led two of his past companies to successful exits.
