Rachel Hennessy leveraged her experience at KPMG and Google before launching her own fashion rental Happy Days in Ireland. The driving force behind the project? Searching for a solution to replace countless one-time purchases that would eventually go to waste.
The starting approach set the grounds for her success: understanding what people around her were looking for, and how to include that in her business. The result is a consumer-centric business model that is translated into different services and experiences.
Rental as a business model is nothing new in the industry, but ensuring profitability, let alone long-term business health, is still a tricky balance between operating costs and revenues.
