Women-centric outerwear brand ACAI's rapid growth is recognised by FEBE

After an impressive year of growth, ACAI, the UK’s first and only women-centric outerwear brand, was placed in the top 20 ‘For Entrepreneurs By Entrepreneurs’ (FEBE) Growth 100 list.

The FEBE Growth 100 list celebrates British businesses, championing founders that are driving their companies to deliver impressive sales, revenue and profit, against a backdrop of unprecedented economic challenges.

The ranking was data-driven, with companies ordered by compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in sales over the last three financial years.

ACAI was founded in 2016 by husband and wife, Kasia and Joe Bromley with the aim to fill the gap in the outerwear market for stylish and functional clothing designed solely for women. The business has since doubled revenue each year since its inception and reported revenues of over £4.5 million in the last financial year. ACAI made headway this year with the announcement of their new investment partner, Growth Partner.

Kasia Bromley, Co-Founder and Creative Director of ACAI, commented: "Our mission to create technical and stylish outdoor clothing, for all women, has resonated since day one. Our consistent year-on-year growth, plus the recent announcement of being recognised as a FEBE Growth 100 business, is a great proof point for the demand and opportunity we see at ACAI.

"We have focused a lot on innovation and launched some of our greatest designs this year, so we are thrilled that customers and industry bodies are recognising that we are offering something unique and exciting in a previously traditional and male-focused market. We have many more plans for the remainder of this year and 2024, with design and women’s comfort and confidence at the forefront of everything we do."
