Fifi’s Fine Resale of Amelia Island’s owner Jessica Miller sold the business to Jamie Bernard, who rebranded and changed the name to Pippi’s Consignment Cottage. Fifi’s has been a resale leader, serving the Amelia Island community for over 25 years. Pippi’s Consignment Cottage will build upon the foundation that Fifi’s has created.

Jessica Miller spent the last 13 ½ years growing the business that Fifi Queen started. Miller was inspired by another local business owner, Cindy Jackson, who advertised her business for sale on social media. Miller created a video about her business being for sale, within days had several interested buyers, and the store sale occurred about a month after the video was published. Miller cut consignor checks for all outstanding balances and mailed them in Thanksgiving cards so that Bernard would start with a fresh, clean slate. Miller will continue to serve the community she is passionate about selling real estate full time for Keller Williams Realty, Atlantic Partners.

Jamie Bernard is a graduate of Jacksonville University with a BA in Communications and a Masters in Educational Leadership. Her communications and leadership experience have made a powerful impact on her successful career as a small business owner so far in life. She understands the struggles business owners face. She especially has a heart for helping women business owners because of the unique challenges they face. As a result of this passion, Bernard founded NOW (Network of Women).

Pippi’s Consignment Cottage is a resale store that offers quality merchandise at great prices with exceptional service to the local community. Pippi’s Consignment Cottage supports several non-profit organizations including: Hope House/Salvation Army, Micah’s Place, and Barnabas’ New to You.
