A conversation with Jim "OBI 1" O'Brien_ Cleo Bella

Our guest this week is a friend, former Pro Surfer, and industry rep.  Spending time living between Bali, Hawaii, and California, along with other worldly adventures with his wife Angela they decided to start importing hand-made bags, jewelry, and clothing. In 2007 they began selling at a local Farmer’s Market in Maui where they were blown away on the response/support from the community. Selling out of goods and seeing the demand they knew they were onto something big and “Cleo Bella” was born. Fast forward to today the company has grown tremendously and expanded into more categories including, swim, high-end fashion, and home goods. He and his wife are still at the helm of their family-owned business and the future look brighter than ever!  We welcome Mr. Jim “ “OBI 1“ O’Brien.
