Month one context: Sold-out SKUs are a positive signal, not a failure. At 1-2 units per size, any sale creates a gap. The goal now is to understand which hotels convert and feed them stock from slower locations before placing new orders.
Stock Reallocation
Move idle stock from slow hotels to proven sellers. Zero cost, immediate uplift.

High Priority = Act Now
These SKUs have already sold out at the destination hotel. Stock is confirmed available at the source hotel. Moving it recovers a lost sale.

Our Story
Who we are, why we exist, and what makes us different
"Designed by divers. Made from ocean plastic.
Built for families who holiday together."
Sandbar was born in Singapore, founded by advanced divers who watched marine parks fill with plastic and decided to do something about it.
The Origin
Founded in Singapore by Mel Reid, a mother and advanced diver with over 100 dives across Malaysia, Thailand, the Maldives and the Philippines. After years of watching even marine parks succumb to ocean plastic, she built a brand that could make a measurable difference. Every piece Sandbar sells funds the removal of 1 kilogram of plastic from ocean coastlines and waterways across South East Asia.

The Mission
70% of the world's ocean plastic originates from South East Asia. Sandbar partners with Seven Clean Seas to fund direct beach and coastal cleanups with every item sold. Our swimwear is made from REPREVE recycled fabric — engineered yarn from 12 to 22 recycled plastic bottles per garment, with U-Trust traceability verification. Sustainability here is not a marketing claim. It is built into the fabric.

What makes Sandbar different
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
Family Matching
The only premium brand offering complete family-matching swimwear — men, women, boys, and girls — in the same print. A single family set drives multiple units per transaction and creates an emotional connection no other brand in this space delivers.
🧵
Embroidered Category
No brand globally competes in all-over embroidered swimwear at any price point. The Embroidered Red Lobster is Sandbar's best-selling product and commands a meaningful premium over printed swim. It is a category Sandbar owns outright.
🌊
Ocean Print Identity
Every print is named and tells a story — Ocean Manta, Pink Palm, Maldives Turtle, Ice Lolly. Guests in the Maldives are buying the Maldives Turtle print because it connects to where they are. That contextual relevance drives conversion that generic swimwear brands cannot replicate.
🏆
Premium Positioning
Priced between Vilebrequin and accessible premium brands, Sandbar sits in white space. Resort retail margins are strong — 40 to 50% on cost price — and the quality justifies the price point. Guests buy because it is genuinely worth wearing again at home.
♻️
Sustainability Story
Guests in the Maldives are acutely aware of ocean conservation. Sandbar is the only brand that lets them buy a beautiful product and directly fund plastic removal from the ocean they are swimming in. That story sells itself at the point of purchase.
📍
Singapore to NYC
Born in Singapore, now expanding into the US market from New York City. An international brand with Asian roots and a global growth story. The origin narrative is uncopiable and resonates with the international guest profile of luxury Maldives resorts.
