We are thrilled to announce that Vela Scarves has successfully raised an impressive $43 million in our latest funding round, a pivotal step in our journey to redefine modest fashion for women around the globe. Founded in 2009 by visionary sisters Marwa and Tasneem Atik, VELA strives to blend style, sustainability, and modesty, allowing women to express their individuality through our meticulously crafted scarf collections. Our latest infusion of capital will enable us to expand our design capabilities, enhance our sustainable materials sourcing, and drive our global outreach initiatives. The funding will help us propel our mission of empowering women to take bold leaps in their fashion choices, without compromising on their values or beliefs. Every scarf we create is a testament to our commitment toward ethical production practices, using custom-woven fabrics and original prints that narrate the stories of the women who wear them. As we look to the future, VELA's ambitious goals include launching innovative new styles, broadening our market presence, and deepening our commitment to sustainability and social responsibility. This milestone solidifies our position at the forefront of the modest fashion revolution and will allow us to continue to inspire women to feel confident, stylish, and true to themselves. Thank you for being part of our journey; together, we are redefining what it means to wear a hijab, one beautiful scarf at a time. Stay tuned for all the exciting developments ahead! #VELAScarves #ModestFashionRevolution #WomenEmpowerment #RunwayInspired #SustainableFashion #DesignedWithPurpose

Edify Systems
When you're running 10+ stores, the cracks in your operations become expensive. Inconsistent stock levels across sites, manual processes that don't scale, food waste that eats into margins, and zero real time visibility for the ops team. That's what Edify solves. Our AI powered platform gives operations leaders a single system to manage inventory, plan production, and report across their entire estate, whether that's 20 locations or 500. Built in intelligence surfaces the insights that matter, so your team spends less time in spreadsheets and more time running operations. What we cover: Inventory management across all sites. AI driven production planning and prep workflows. Operational reporting and real time visibility. Multi location scalability built in from day one. We work with QSR brands and multi site coffee chains who have outgrown spreadsheets and fragmented systems but need something purpose built for high volume, multi unit operations. If your back of house is holding back your growth, we should talk.
