Net Worth
It is unclear what Brand’s exact net worth is. However, it is speculated to be around $2 million.
Most of Brand’s net worth comes from his work in the beauty industry. He has worked for several high-profile beauty companies, including Prada, Ralph Lauren, Tom Ford, and Gucci. Through these companies, Brand grew many successful retail stores. This would have contributed significantly to his net worth (1).
In addition, Brand also runs a company named Noteworthy Partners LTD. He is the director of this management consultancy firm. However, the company’s accounts are currently overdue, and it is not trading (2).
Company
Brand is the director of Noteworthy Partners LTD, which he incorporated in July 2017. When the company was established, Brand had 50 shares in Noteworthy Partners, valued at £1 per share. Darrel Passey owned the other shares.
Later in the same month, Brand’s shares changed to more than 25% but less than 50% of the company. The following year, Passey ceased working with the company, leaving Brand to retain 100 ordinary shares with the same valuation.
In 2018, Noteworthy Partners declared its assets at £100, which came entirely from the 100 ordinary shares in the company. The company’s balance sheets also reported that the group was a dormant business.
Since 2018, there have been no changes in the company’s shares, nor has it generated any revenue.
Brand continues to hold a 100% stake in Noteworthy Partners.
However, in July 2022, the UK government gave the company notice, declaring it would be dissolved within 2 months unless they received further details. It is unclear if this situation has changed (3).
Previously, Brand owned a franchise store of a children’s shoe company named Pom D’api. He owned the company from 1995 to 2001, and the company has since closed down its Beverly Hills store. It is unknown how much revenue Brand made from the store (4).
Additionally, Brand also owned a shoe store, Freelance, which was a franchise of Rautureau Apple Shoes. He shared ownership of the company with Larry Everton, and it is unclear how much revenue the company made (5).
Earnings
Brand’s first known job was as a general manager for Prada’s Beverly Hills based store, where he worked from 1991 to 1995. It is unclear how much Brand received exactly.
However, it is speculated that a General Manager currently receives approximately $112,130 per year, with a base pay of $74,426 with bonuses of $37,704 (6).
Brand then ran a franchise of Pom D’Api from 1995 to 2001, when he became retail director for Plein Sud. Similarly, this position has the lowest pay of $110,000 and the highest pay of $167,500, with a median of $140,140 (7).
From 2005 to 2008, Brand worked as the Retail Director and General Manager for Custo Barcelona. This company has an average salary of $283,018, with a low of $250,122 and a high of $320,642, so it is likely that Brand was paid somewhere between these figures (8).
Brand worked for a single year for G-Star as a Retail Director and Head of Business Development. As an executive for the company, Brand is rumoured to have received an average salary of $230,364 (9).
Following this, Brand worked for Ralph Lauren as a Men’s Manager in the Ralph Lauren Mansion.
He also worked as an Assistant General Director and Manager for Tom Ford’s Madison Avenue store. It is unclear how much he received for these positions, although it is likely to be in line with his previous earnings.
Later, Brand became Assistant General Manager for Gucci’s Fifth Avenue store. He likely received a salary of approximately $245,681 in this position, according to speculation (10).
After working at Gucci, Brand became the Women’s Department Manager for Barneys New York. It is unclear how much he earned from this position, though it is estimated to be at least $110,035 (11). This was Brand’s most current salaried position, and his earnings since 2017 are unclear.
Real Estate
It is unclear where Brand currently resides. However, in 2021, his correspondence address was listed as an apartment on East 93rd Street in Manhattan, New York (12).
The apartment was built in 1923 and featured two beds with one bathroom. The exact size of the property is unclear, although it was sold in June 2021 for approximately $850,000 (13).
Prior to this, Brand owned two stores in Beverly Hills, California, so it is possible that he owned a house here, too (14). The median house price for this area is $5.55 million, with an average of $1370 per square foot (15).
Early Life
Brand was born in March 1961; however, the exact date is unknown. His place of birth and parents’ names are unclear, although he is known to have grown up in the United States. It is also unclear where he studied for high school.
However, he did attend American University in Washington DC, where he studied Communications for his bachelor’s degree.
Currently, the entry requirements for this are a minimum GPA of 2.5 on a 4.00 scale, so he presumably received at least this grade at high school.
His final grade at university is unknown, as well as the date of his graduation. He has stated that, while studying at American University, he completed an internship at WRC-TV, as well as an NBC Affiliate group.
Career
Brand’s first job was as a General Manager for the designer company Prada between 1991 and 1995. He worked at their Beverly Hills store and managed a team of 26 employees.
As part of this job, Brand managed to create sales of roughly $6250 per square foot on a sales area of 1600 square feet.
Following this, Brand became a franchise owner of the French shoe stores Pom D’Api between 1995 and 2001. This became the company’s first American franchise and led to him owning a Freelance franchise store, too. These have both since closed down.
Between 2001 and 2005, Brand was the Retail Director for Plein Sud. During this job, Brand focused on expanding retail stores for the company, eventually opening 3 of them in prime spots in New York City.
Between 2005 and 2008, Brand was the Retail Director and General Manager for Custo Barcelona.
He helped to develop the store from 7 locations to 22 stores internationally, including those in the United States, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico.
Then, Brand worked for G-Star as a Retail Director and Head of Business Development for a year. This job involved managing 70 team members and increasing procedures for reporting by approximately 60%.
From 2009 to 2011, Brand was a Men’s Manager at the Ralph Lauren Mansion in New York. Similarly to his other positions, Brand managed 25 employees and helped to improve the sales team’s growth.
After this, Brand worked for Tom Ford as an Assistant General Director and Manager until 2013. He focused on improving the store’s profitability by helping to train employees and managing the store’s budget.
After completing this job, Brand was the Assistant General Manager for Gucci at their Fifth Avenue store.
This job involved Brand managing his largest team so far, with a team of 105 employees. He also managed the day-to-day procedures of the store, with a specific focus on the Men’s Department.
From 2016 to 2017, Brand was the Women’s Department Manager for Barneys New York. However, it is unclear what this job specifically involved. He has worked as Luxury Retail Brand Consultant for Noteworthy Partners since 2017.
