[ENTREPRENEUR] Atelier MARPO - Exploring the horizons of entrepreneurship at the origin of a great creative idea
Atelier MARPO - Exploring the horizons of entrepreneurship at the origin of a beautiful creative idea
In the midst of the challenges and opportunities of modern entrepreneurship, Marion Potriquet-Jarlot (Grande École 2019) invites you to discover Atelier MARPO, a French jewelry brand.
After graduating from the Université Catholique de Lille with a double bachelor's degree in eco-finance, Marion joined the Grande École program at IÉSEG in 2016. Very attracted to the fashion sector, Marion explored the opportunities offered in the ready-to-wear field in terms of product offering (RougeGorge, ETAM lingerie, Jules & Brice...).
It was with an overwhelming passion that Marion embraced the idea of creating her own brand, a vision that took shape at the very heart of confinement. She began by launching her first brand: M LES JOLIES CHOSES, a range of accessories made from upcycled fabrics. Chouchous, make-up remover wipes, bow ties for men, 100% made in Hauts-de-France and eco-responsible creations. However, competition was fierce (because during the lock-up, many young designers in this field created their own brands too), so Marion had to renew herself. She decided to branch out into the world of jewelry, and in particular colorful acrylic bracelets. Atelier MARPO was born. All the jewels are handmade, and quantities are limited, allowing for unique creations and avoiding overproduction.
One of the most exciting facets of ATELIER MARPO's evolution is its strategic expansion through retail boutiques in all four corners of the globe, as well as its online presence via its website and social networks. This expansion represents a crucial chapter in the brand's history, marking its transition to a wider, more diversified audience. In early 2024, the brand opened its own showroom/workshop in Lambersart (260 rue de la Carnoy).
In just one year, the brand has grown considerably, thanks in particular to various collaborations with brands, but also via partnerships with influencers. Incidentally, marpo bracelets will be worn by Audrey Fleurot in the next season of HPI!
Stay tuned, because the future holds many surprises!
