Bandolier: The Phone Accessory Brand

This morning, Jill Martin from the Today show met with Maggie Drake, the co-founder of Bandolier, a popular phone accessory brand. Maggie had a common problem: she kept losing her phone. She wanted a hands-free solution that was both functional and fashionable.

Maggie and her friend Colleen Karis started the company in 2013. They pooled their money together and launched Bandolier. The brand quickly gained popularity, and celebrities like Taylor Swift and Martha Stewart started wearing it.

Today, Bandolier is a multi-million-dollar brand with double-digit growth year after year. Maggie is the chief creative officer, and the company is expanding to new products like wallets and makeup holders.
