Having secured interest to sell their products in Walmart, Faith in Nature needed to contract a new logistics partner to support them with their supply chain and export needs. Faith in Nature had heard about Atlante UK and reached out to Philip Durham, Altante’s UK Commercial Director.
Faith in Nature produces beauty products from 100% natural ingredients which are sustainably and ethically created. The brand was already well established in the UK with products on sale in Sainsbury's, Holland & Barrat and Wholefoods. The company also had a small footprint state-side in Bed, Bath and Beyond and Target.
How did Walmart find Faith in Nature, well it's one of these random stories born out of the Covid-19 pandemic as the beauty buyer for Walmart got stuck in London during lockdown and she found herself with time on her hands to browse the shelves of the UK’s beauty departments. It was during this time that she discovered Faith in Nature. A brand developed by a female entrepreneur, Rivka Rose, during the 1970s.
The problem? Faith in Nature needed a logistics solution that would cover everything from shipping, warehousing, and inter-country transport whilst also providing "in-country" support to manage relationships on the ground with retailers.
