Johnny Fly Co

We love cool shades, and we love the environment too. So does former race car driver Johnny Freeman — who decided to put together new product lines of sunglasses and leather bags, in a more sustainable way. So get this — the frames for the shades are made from recycled cotton, and the arms are made of wood. You heard that right — wood. He sells them online and from his flagship store in NoDa that bears his racing nickname, Johnny Fly. And his leather bags — well, we’ll let him tell it. We’re glad to have Johnny Fly himself with us on the BrandBuilders Podcast to tell us his story

204: Johnny Freeman – Johnny Fly Co

How do you break into a retail sector where 90% of the market is owned or controlled by one company? Today we’re joined by Johnny Freeman, Founder and CEO of Johnny Fly Co. Johnny Fly was founded in 2011, with a hand full of designs and an ambitious objective: to create wearable artwork and one-of-a-kind items that represent a unique individuality that can only be found in nature. The brand was formed from humble beginnings with a scattering of tee shirts and a passion to create something truly original. Listen along as we discuss how to build a brand from the dining room table to shipping to 89 different countries, the why behind wooden, eco-friendly sunglasses, and what it looks like to take the plunge from being a direct-to-consumer brand to having your own brick-and-mortar store.
