THE OWNER:
Riches & Royalty® was founded by Akeem Henry in 2010 after he graduated from middle school. He had always enjoyed styling himself, his family members, and friends. Additionally, when he stepped out in public people would admire how he dressed by complimenting his outfits.
As a result of Henry getting rejected from a summer job, he decided he should go out and start his own business. He landed on clothing as a business idea because during that era he noticed that a lot of the clothing lines in the Baltimore, Maryland did not use any colorful graphic logos on their clothing, so he created a line of shirts that incorporated a strong bold design that would resonate with the community.
However, before releasing his t-shirts he started off with 30 metal pinned buttons with his logo that he designed himself on his iPad and began distributing his pins in high school. This was apart of his marketing strategy to promote and gain support from classmates and friends. From here is where the R&R brand began to blossom and Henry turned himself into an official entrepreneur.
