At Kakou Collective, we carefully consider each retail partnership to ensure alignment with our values and commitment to quality and follow guidelines/criteria with each partnership opportunity.
Here’s what occurs if we decide not to approve an applicant to be a retail partner:
Transparency: We believe in open and respectful communication. If we choose not to approve a retail partner, we communicate our decision clearly and provide feedback upon request. This transparency fosters understanding and clarity throughout the process.
Opportunities for Improvement: We understand that alignment can evolve over time. For retailers who may not meet our criteria initially, we offer constructive feedback and suggest areas where they can enhance their alignment with our values. This feedback may create opportunities for future collaboration.
Reapplication Opportunity: We encourage retailers who are not initially approved to reapply once they have addressed the areas of improvement identified during the initial review. We believe in second chances and are committed to working with retailers who share our passion for celebrating Hawaiian culture and supporting local communities.
Maintaining Standards: Upholding our selection criteria ensures consistency and quality in all our partnerships. By maintaining these standards, we safeguard the integrity of the Kakou Collective brand and ensure that our products resonate with customers who value and appreciate our mission.
At Kakou Collective, every retail partnership is a meaningful collaboration contributing to our mission of celebrating Hawaiian culture and supporting local communities. We value the relationships we build with our partners and strive for mutual success and growth.
