Boy Smells

Boy Smells is sold in over 300 locations worldwide, but as brick-and-mortar companies began closing in mid-March, the company told Business Insider that nearly all of their orders were canceled - and the supply chains it used to rely on also began to shut down. Quickly, the brand pivoted to e-commerce, and cofounders Matthew Herman and David Kien went back to pouring their own candles - something they hadn't done since the company first launched in 2016. One big issue the company has now been dealing with is trying to find ingredients for candles, as some necessary products are not able to be exported from the countries they used to source from. "We're faced with more out-of-orders and out-of-stocks, and shortages, and being able to sell," Herman told Business Insider.
