Stark Enterprises is rooted in the world of international fashion. Prior to founding Stark Enterprises in 2006, owner Rachel Stark-Cappelli and her husband and business partner Andrea Cappelli resided in Florence, Italy where they created and distributed fashion brands in Italy and throughout Europe.
Returning to her native New York City in 2006, Rachel launched Stark Enterprises to bring luxury European fashion to the reward in recognition market. In 2007 Stark introduced the iconic Italian fashion brand, Salvatore Ferragamo to the market. It remains today, our signature luxury brand.
Since that time our fashion offerings have expanded to include jewelry, accessories and eyewear that has made Stark Enterprises the go to source for fashion across price points from entry level to true luxury. Our styles offered represent everything from the very traditional to the cutting edge, appealing across a wide range of personal tastes. Stark offers home fashion and personal fitness products that are in keeping with our Eye for Style.
Stark Enterprises was born in the world of fashion, and it remains at the core of what we bring to the market.
We approach our business with the goal of being a true partner to our brands and our customers.
For our brand partners we pledge to protect the brand. To represent it in the market in a manner consistent with the brand standards and to protect product from unauthorized distribution. We provide a brand with immediate access to the market supported by a national distribution channel and top-tier fulfillment capabilities.
Our customer partners know us for our ability help select the right merchandise for their product offerings, to fulfill orders promptly and accurately and to be innovative and flexible with requests and projects. We recognize our role is more than just a distributor who puts product in a box and ships. We are part of an ecosystem that supports the use of merchandise to reward and recognize employees, sales partners and customers for their achievements and loyalty.
Behind our focus on fashion and our quest to develop true partnerships is technology designed for the specific needs of this market. The reward and recognition market is 100% of our focus and our technology, processes and fulfillment capability reflects this singular focus.
Our technology enables us to effectively manage inventory, process and fulfill orders and provide order status information. We can integrate electronically with virtually all platforms for the seamless transmission of orders, order status, tracking, invoicing, and inventory in scheduled or near real-time environment.
The vast majority of orders are shipped within the next business day of receipt. We stand by our word to ship the correct product and for it to arrive ready to be enjoyed by the person who earned it.
We are committed to principles that are the heart of The Stark Difference. We are committed to supporting this market with brands and products that touch a personal need for style and flair. Some items are aspirational, a once in a lifetime chance to carry a luxury handbag. Some are functional, but with that little something that sets them and the user apart. Some are just plain fun.
We are committed to being a true partner that recognizes that our success depends on the success of our customers and that we have a role in assuring our brands and products and service contributes to their success.
We are committed to this market, and we will assure that our human and technology infrastructure is focused to serve the specific needs of the market. As a company we will maintain an active role in promoting the use of merchandise to reward and recognize.
