HER STORY ⟡ Marjorie Ritchie
Today, we are meeting Marjorie Ritchie, Founder and Owner of The Exchange Consignment Boutique!
Tell us about your business!
We're a boutique-style consignment shop making sustainable fashion easy and affordable. From everyday staples to special finds, we curate quality clothing and accessories for women, kids, and select men - giving great pieces a second life.
What type of impact do you hope to have on those you meet/speak to?
I hope to inspire a more thoughtful approach to fashion by showing the quality, sustainability, and style can coexist. I want women to feel good about what they wear, how they shop, and to always feel welcomed.
What advice would you give to yourself from 5 years ago?
You don't have to have it all figured out to move forward. Always trust your own vision and trust the timing. Invest in what truly moves your business forward and let go of what no longer fits in your vision. Lastly, stay consistent.
What does BEAUTY mean to you?
BEAUTY to me is a feeling of when you are around someone who radiates authentic positivity. Someone you wants other people to succeed in life and elevates people to their highest potential. A warmth of feeling welcomed into a circle of connection.
What do you love most about owning your own business?
Being able to connect with people, support their style, and provide a good feeling about what they purchase makes my work fulfilling. I love offering sustainable, quality fashions at prices the community can afford. Everyday is a new day owning a consignment boutique.
Who or what inspires you?
Over a decade ago a mentor taught that success doesn't come without effort, but it also doesn't require perfection. Their belief in hard work, a true passion, and believing in yourself still influences my everyday life and business.
