Background

About Kenza Fourati

I’m an entrepreneur, creative strategist, and a model with a career built at the intersection of fashion, operations, and social impact. After working for houses like Chanel, Armani, and H&M, I co-founded @OSAY—an artisan-crafted, ethically sourced footwear brand inspired by Mediterranean heritage. I’ve led OSAY’s operations across two continents: sourcing upcycled leather in Tunisia, managing production and logistics, and expanding into international markets across the US, Europe, and the Middle East. My experience spans brand development, global sourcing, supply chain, campaign storytelling, and go-to-market strategy. I bring both creative vision and operational rigor to everything I do—whether building brands, launching products, or creating experiences that connect across cultures. I also support fair labor in fashion through board roles at Model Alliance, Slow Factory, and Model Mafia. My work—across fundraising, writing, and strategy—is grounded in empathy and the belief that great brands make people feel seen. While fashion remains a core part of my journey, I’m excited to explore opportunities in other industries where I can bring value through thoughtful storytelling, purpose-driven operations, and cross-cultural strategy—especially within teams building meaningful, forward-thinking businesses.
