The Mission

Made for More Than a Logo.

Youngpreneur started with a simple belief: young people don’t just want to wear a brand, they want to build one. Every hoodie, hat, and tee is designed to look like the ambition it stands for, and to put real dollars behind the youth chasing it. When you wear Youngpreneur, you’re not buying merch. You’re backing a movement.

What We Stand For

Built on Three Things

01
Youth First
Everything we make starts with young entrepreneurs, and the people who cheer them on.
02
10% Gives Back
10% of proceeds fund entrepreneurship and financial-literacy programs for the next generation.
03
Designed by the Next Gen
Through the Spotlight, real young designers see their ideas produced, sold, and preserved in brand history.

A Youngpreneur Tradition

Youngpreneur Spotlight

Four times a year, one young designer’s idea becomes an official limited-edition Youngpreneur collection, produced, sold, and preserved in our history forever.

From the Founder

“I’m Shakori Edwards, and I built Youngpreneur so the next generation could wear what they’re building, and fund it at the same time. I come from a family that has served the same corner of Dorchester County for 150 years: ministers, educators, builders. Out in the world I learned the hard way that the gap between where you are and where you want to be is almost never effort, it’s information. This brand is my answer. Young isn’t an age. It’s a mindset.”

Shakori Edwards, Founder & CEO
