We made a decision early to 'Go Big' with this company. We got successful angels in the etailing space (CEO/COO/CFO of AbeBooks), and got a first round of financing before incorporating the company back in March of last year. If the opportunity is there (which we have a bias to think so), you want to get as much of the market before another player comes in, and through the web, you can get access to quite a large market relatively easy!

Indochino is building a custom-clothing fulfillment business that they can scale. If it was just Kyle (the CEO) and a tailor or two, then sure, it would be a lifestyle business. But he is doing a lot more. This is also the second ecommerce site to get funded in Canada this month.
