Josh Turner, a 34-year-old entrepreneur from New York City, established Stand4Socks, a sock company dedicated to philanthropy. For every pair sold, one is donated to individuals in need, including those in Ukraine. With more than $1 million in annual revenue, Turner’s journey began from a young age, grounded in entrepreneurial endeavors. After experiencing job loss around Christmas, he capitalized on welfare benefits to launch his side hustle. Inspired by similar social initiatives, Turner highlights the blend of business and social impact as the core of his brand's mission.
When I was still in school, I did club nights, eBay, power selling, etc., and this laid the foundation for being a lifetime entrepreneur.
Being dyslexic, I eventually had the opportunity to spend a lot of time with Richard Branson, one of the most famous British entrepreneurs who also has dyslexia.
The extra money and time I had to pursue this when I lost my job was the launchpad for my company.
I saw how the mash-up of social impact and entrepreneurship could work well, which inspired the creation of Stand4Socks.
