Our Story

Front & Company began in 1993 in a cozy 700 sq ft shop on 3746 Main Street, Vancouver. What started as a small space for consignment clothing, vintage jewelry, and eclectic collectibles quickly grew into something much more—thanks to a loyal community of customers and consignors who embraced our vision for thoughtful fashion and creative retail.
As Main Street transformed into a hub for independent style, we evolved alongside it. By 1998, we expanded and renovated 3742 Main Street to offer more fashion-forward clothing and trend-driven accessories. In the years that followed, our offerings grew to include gifts and home accessories, and a carefully curated mix of both new and pre-loved pieces.

By 2001, we opened a dedicated consignment space at 3772 Main Street. Then in 2008, after a fire, we turned challenge into opportunity—rebuilding and expanding to the adjacent space with a total over 5,000 sq ft. The new store became home to an even larger selection of consignment items, along with our newest addition of many sample and new clothing lines, allowing us to reach a broader audience while staying true to our sustainable roots.
In 2014, we grew again, launching our first POP-UP store at the latest space 3740 Main Street. With rotating themes like Cottagecore, Athleisure, and Boho, and an expanded Gift Shop, we continued to surprise and delight our customers with fresh finds and unique experiences.
When COVID hit in 2019, we adapted quickly. To follow BC Health guidelines, we moved our consignment area into a private space next door, ensuring consignors had a safe, welcoming place for appointments and appraisals.
