The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Hugger Mugger started in the United States, making yoga mats and props. They built their name on cork yoga mats. The mats caught on with serious practitioners early. Now they sit across thousands of retail channels worldwide. The brand ranks twenty-second in Health, Fitness & Wellness categories. They appear in six thousand six hundred forty-nine tracked brands. Cork remains their signature material. Gyms and studios stock their products everywhere. They stayed focused on yoga equipment when others diversified. That discipline built their reputation. Today they own the yoga prop space clearly.
