The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Brooklinen started in 2014 in New York. Founders Rich Fulop and Vicky Tsai built a direct-to-consumer bedding company. They make sheets, pillows, mattresses, and duvet covers. Their Luxe Sateen sheets became the signature product, arriving in distinctive packaging. The brand cut out middlemen and sold online first, undercutting traditional retailers. This vertical integration shaped their early growth and cult following. Today Brooklinen operates across North America and Europe. They rank first among 21,133 tracked mattress and sleep brands. The company remains synonymous with affordable luxury bedding and subscription-model replenishment. Warehouse distribution and direct shipping define their operations.
