When Ken Gaitano first started reselling sneakers, it wasn't with a five-year business plan in hand. It was about street culture, design, and the thrill of the hunt. A Filipino immigrant with a degree in business administration and a passion for entrepreneurship, Ken moved to the U.S. in 2013 and began selling shoes part-time. What started as a side hustle quickly became the Hustle Bee. Today, Ken has sold more than 25,000 items, built a community of 3,400+ eBay followers, and maintained outstanding customer feedback.
