Malin + Goetz Cofounders Talk 20 Years of Business

26 Apr

20 years in and still fresh as ever. When partners in business and life, Matthew Malin and Andrew Goetz, launched Malin + Goetz in 2004, it was with $150,000 of non-public savings and a single door, an internet site within the nascent days of the web and now-defunct Barneys Latest York as its retailer.
