Afro Unicorn, has announced a new partnership with licensing agency, Retail Monster, to represent the Afro Unicorn lifestyle brand around the globe. 

“It’s extremely important for all our partners to understand our brand’s mission to help normalize Black beauty worldwide,” says April Showers, chief executive officer and founder, Afro Unicorn. “With more than 20 licensees we felt it was necessary to seek the best management team around to assist with managing our current program and to bring greater awareness of the brand globally through entertainment and gaming. We are convinced Retail Monster really understands the mission of our brand and are fully equipped to spread that brand awareness to the masses. We feel strongly that they too believe Afro Unicorn is needed in the world now more than ever.” 

Launched in 2019, Afro Unicorn has a product line that includes party supplies, accessories, toys, apparel and more. 

“April’s vision, passion and drive are infectious, and the opportunity to help craft the licensing and retail evolution of Afro Unicorn is a responsibility our entire team is humbled to accept,” says Michael Connolly, chief executive officer and founder, Retail Monster. “In an ever-changing world, it’s refreshing to work with an authentic brand that will resonate in meaningful ways for today’s kids. Retail Monster is committed, engaged and thrilled to bring this story to life at retail for this empowering children’s and women’s lifestyle brand.”
