Our Mission

FEMMENAS is the marketplace where the
brands you discover carry a story worth knowing. We bring together foreign-born and
globally rooted women founders so you can shop products shaped by real culture,
craft, and conviction. Every purchase you make gives these founders visibility,
supports women building businesses on their own terms, and helps grow a
community where women support women.

We are building more than a marketplace

A platform where women support women.

  • Visibility

    We bring overlooked founders into view.

  • Community

    Women supporting women, brand to brand.

  • Authenticity

    Culturally rooted, story-driven products.

  • Empowerment

    Equal opportunity for women to rise.

Meet the Founder

Hello Everyone,

My name is Giorgia Occhiello and I am the proud founder of Femmenas.

I was born and raised in the South of Italy and moved to the US almost 15 years ago.

As a foreign-born woman, I understand what it means to build something in a place that wasn't originally home —
navigating new systems, cultural barriers, and networks.

Femmenas was born from a simple belief:
talented women entrepreneurs deserve to be seen, celebrated, and supported. I built it as a curated marketplace highlighting brands founded by women and the remarkable stories behind them.

Every brand has a story. Every founder deserves visibility.
