About us

Who we are
We are ABOUT YOU – one of the fastest-growing e-commerce companies in Europe and the digital home for a new generation of fashion enthusiasts. Since our founding in 2014, we've collaborated with our stakeholders to pursue the ambitious goal of digitizing the traditional shopping stroll by offering customers in 29 countries an inspiring and personalized shopping experience on their smartphones. With over 1,500 talents from more than 77 nations, we're pioneering the fusion of fashion and technology – a revolutionary shift in the industry that rewarded us with a turnover of 2 billion Euros in the 2024/25 financial year.
"Be fast, stay hungry, and do it with passion!"
Driven by an inclusive company culture and a dynamic hands-on mentality, we constantly seek smart and straightforward opportunities for optimization. This establishes an environment where capabilities can be fully utilized and decisions made quickly – of course, always based on data-driven analyses. Our renowned app adapts to user behavior and focuses on relevant topics, including exclusive Celebrity Collections, current trends, and informative guides. Yet, we're also changing the real world of fashion: With the ABOUT YOU Fashion Week, we're pushing the boundaries of fashion and entertainment, a concept we've coined 'Fashiontainment'.
