My Story
My name is Amanda Lanigan and I’m the founder, owner, designer, and creator of Urban Gemms Wholesale.
Im an Air Force wife, stay at home business owner and mommy to our two children; our daughter Chandler Rae, and our son Bryson James. Im also a fur mom of two beautiful dogs Macie and Bailey.
I started by opening up my own boutique back in 2016 and selling my items at retail. Later I decided to dabble into the wholesale side because I thought it would be fun to have that extra side business along with my boutique. Eventually it flourished into me only wanting to work in wholesale instead of retail! I so much rather enjoy working direct with retailers! It gives me the opportunity to have my customer base that I enjoyed in retail, while also working with fellow business owners who are like minded and have the same interests as I do. I love coming up with new creations and color schemes for my earrings, finding new patterns and designs for my headbands, and launching new collections! I try my best to launch new products bi-weekly, but launch new collections monthly! I pride myself on having great customer service and working hard to make my ladies happy! I will always try my hardest to make a bad situation right (although there hasn’t been many bad situations that I have encountered thus far). I would love to make every customer happy and wanting to return for more!
