Our take

Brooklinen delivers a range of high-quality home essentials to cut out middleman suppliers, traditionally a major cost in the supply of bedding. The result is that Brooklinen is able to reduce the complexity associated with its supply chain whilst increasing product quality.

In a crowded market for home essentials, Brooklinen has proven to be hugely profitable. Its strategy of focusing on a vertically integrated supply chain has paid off with significant revenue. By creating lightweight and durable sheets designed to soften after each wash cycle, Brooklinen provides an attractive option for those wanting luxury sheets without the hefty price tag.

From the funding it has received, Brooklinen has been able to invest in its product range, such as through its expansion to loungewear to offer more options for customers. Further, the opening of physical stores in highly profitable locations has been a smart move by the company and its strategic wholesale scaling has opened up new B2B revenue.
