and CEO
Ashley Stewart
Founder
FirePine Group
Founded in 1991, Ashley Stewart, whose name was inspired by two American businesswomen icons and with roots in urban communities across the United States, is a multi-media lifestyle brand dedicated to the plus-size woman. This perennially insolvent, twice-bankrupt
retailer with no wi-fi at its corporate offices as late as September 2013 has
emerged to become a cutting-edge player in the plus-size women’s fashion space with 90 stores across the
country, a leading eCommerce business, and one of the most socially engaged
online communities.
Join us to hear James Rhee, a former high school teacher turned investor, firm founder, and now award winning Chairman and CEO, leaned on the bedrock of old-fashioned values and the importance of innovation and consumer engagement, to bring the Ashley Stewart brand to where it is today. He’ll share how through the seamless integration of superficially unrelated disciplines of bond duration math, Toyota production best practices, multi-media content production and B-corp style leadership, Ashley Stewart has defied the odds by unleashing a friendship-driven groundswell of innovation, not to mention industry leading engagement, NPS and return on asset metrics.
