Why was Seattle Fashion Incubator created? To take the fourth highest concentration of fashion designers in the United States to the next level. To give the over 3,100 self-employed in the field in the region the tools to grow their businesses in the Seattle market, and create jobs. It was also created with the goal of capturing at least a 5% market share of the $3.3 Billion in revenue generated in the wholesale and manufacturing end of industry in Washington State in the next five years.
