“Can a UK-born DTC activewear brand build a loyal global community and expand LTV through recommerce and a branded mobile app?”
AYBL was founded as a direct-to-consumer activewear brand under RK BRANDS LTD, selling fitness and gym apparel primarily to UK and international consumers through its own website and app. The company expanded internationally with regional storefronts (UK, EU, US). In 2024, AYBL added a branded recommerce channel (Re-AYBL via Treet), signalling a sustainability/circularity push typical of premium DTC brands. Its embedded finance stack is minimal and payment-focused, consistent with a DTC brand reliant on third-party SaaS for checkout and resale.
