OUR STORY

SSENSE was founded by brothers Rami, Firas and Bassel Atallah. Born in Damascus, Syria, they emigrated to Montreal with their family when they were teenagers. SSENSE began as Rami’s part-time passion project, powered by his curiosity surrounding e-commerce in its early stages. An experiment with fashion’s secondary market revealed a compelling growth opportunity, leading him to build the first SSENSE platform as part of his graduate thesis for his degree in computer engineering. He was joined by his two brothers to fully explore its potential. Firas had recently graduated with a degree in Finance and Economics while Bassel had just begun studying mechanical engineering. With their complementary skill sets, the brothers set out to engineer a leading global fashion platform to merge online and offline; leveraging the internet to define the next generation of retail.

OUR PURPOSE

We are a creative community who believes challenging convention moves culture forward, so we use our platform to amplify the voices that are changing the way we see the world.

  • Expert Outsiders


    We solve problems by exploring unexpected paths rather than relying on established conventions, creating the next generation of experts.

  • Ahead But In Sight


    We strive to be at the forefront, but not so far out that we lose the connection to our customers.

  • Entrepreneurial Collaborators

    We take bold, calculated risks in pursuit of our vision and trust the shared experience of our team will overcome individual biases and unlock the best solutions.

  • Fast But Uncompromising

    We move quickly towards our shared goals but never at the expense of our standards or our integrity.
