Randy Peers, president and CEO of the Chamber, explained that the stores are about Brooklyn's independent makers and designers, and are focused on exposing them to audiences they might not normally interact with.
"If you look at El Salvador, for example, these bags are made by single moms in El Salvador out of recycled plastic," Peers said. "We're really proud of this new element. We're really excited to be able to showcase some of our international partners. Brooklyn is an international brand, so it makes a lot of sense."
