Introducing Brittany, founder of Wrappr 

This month, we chatted with Brittany, the founder of Wrappr. Brittany worked as a Project Manager for an agency from 2015 to 2018. After the arrival of her baby, she decided not to return to work, drawn to the self-employed lifestyle she was familiar with from her parents and husband. Inspired to create reusable gift wrap, Brittany identified a gap in the market, particularly after her brother returned from Japan with Furoshiki wraps. With her husband in the artistic creative field, she gathered support from him and friends to bring her vision to life.

In October 2019, she launched a pilot website to test the concept and was thrilled when a buyer from Indigo reached out via Instagram. As 2020 began and her daughter was in daycare, Brittany dedicated herself to developing the website further. By summer 2020, demand for wholesale orders from small shops started to rise, prompting her to expand her offerings. Now, in 2024, Wrappr is gearing up for international growth, collaborating with talented artists from Canada, the USA, Europe, Kenya, and Japan to create unique reusable gift wraps. Brittany carefully curates each collaboration, ensuring that the distinct styles of the artists shine through in their commissioned artwork.
