800Razors.com was founded in 2014. At the time, there was no online market that catered to personal care needs and offered affordable options. This concept had a competitive edge against the options available in the category. By creating an online-only destination, they offered lower prices than the competition. Carrying all the essentials for a great shave, and a varied selection, 800Razors.com was a one-stop-shop for shaving and accessories.
Project Brief
An innovator in the personal care category, 800Razors.com was created to close a gap in the market. Razors and shaving accessories were dominated by overpriced brands. E-commerce changed the retail environment and opened up new avenues for consumers to make purchasing decisions. Competitive pricing, quality products, and exceptional customer service allowed 800Razors.com to create a name for the brand.
