About 3585 Collective

I built 3585 because I needed it and it didn't exist.

I'm Nicole, a Chattanooga entrepreneur and the founder of 3585 Collective. Like a lot of you, I started my business online building a brand, developing a product, figuring it out as I went. And at some point I hit a wall. The one where online isn't enough anymore, but signing a lease feels like too much. Where you know you're ready for something more permanent, but the path to get there isn't clear.

I looked around Chattanooga for a space where an emerging brand could establish a real physical presence—not just a booth, pop-up tent, or corner at a flea market—without taking on the full risk of going it alone. I couldn't find one with the standards I adhere to. So, I decided to build it.

3585 Collective is named for the geographic coordinates that define this city 35.85°N, 85.31°W. That wasn't an accident. And it matches my initials too—cute, right? This is a Chattanooga business, built by a Chattanooga entrepreneur, for the women building the next generation of Chattanooga brands.

Every decision I’ve made from the shared infrastructure and community model to the consignment structure was made by someone who has sat exactly where you’re sitting right now and wished something like this existed for her.
