The Birth of Luxe Collective

Luxe Collective was co-founded by Ben Gallagher and his brother, stemming from their childhood experiences in a wealthy area where they struggled to fit in. Growing up, they always had an entrepreneurial spirit, selling various items on eBay to create extra income. The idea for Luxe Collective began when Ben discovered a pre-owned luxury goods platform and believed he could offer a better service by ensuring authenticity and quicker transactions. With just £1,200 to start and no external investments, they aimed to create a marketplace that allowed for instant buyout prices, paving the way for their unique position in the luxury resale market.
