KidBox is a seasonal service that sends out spring, summer, fall, winter and back-to-school kits. Its model of operation is slightly different than traditional subscription boxes as the company does not have styling fees and consumers can skip a season as they please. The personalized offerings are based on a quick style quiz. Children can pick their favorites from the box and send the rest back. In addition, KidBox partners up with not-for-profit organization Delivering Good and donates an outfit for a child for every box that is kept in its entirety.
For 2018, the convenient service is adding its own brand in the mix, honoring the company's expansion. Therefore, consumers will enjoy a back-to-school kit that includes one item from KidBox's own label.
