Our take
Hims & Hers is a direct-to-consumer brand made for men and women, offering products for skin care, birth control, erectile dysfunction, hair loss and more. The company aims to create an open and honest culture of care that is accessible for everyone, no matter who you are or where you live.
Hims & Hers approach healthcare differently through a telemedicine approach combined with a comprehensive wholesale and branding strategy. This allows customers to get diagnosed and treated at a lower cost and with greater convenience whilst the company simultaneously increases customer brand's presence across the US.
The company is increasingly focused on becoming a modern healthcare brand, and has a huge addressable market to go after. Recent launch of an app has helped the company grow significantly. Further, it is focusing investment into platform infrastructure and the development of partnerships with physical stores including retail giant Walmart, as well as continuing to launch new products such as its range of volumising shampoos.
