Life at MeUndies
MeUndies disrupted the $110B underwear industry when it launched the first online underwear subscription model in 2011. Founder Jonathan Shokrian identified a market gap during his own shopping experience. Nothing about underwear shopping was enjoyable - other brands were hyper-sexualized, overcomplicated, uncomfortable and inconvenient. He recognized that no one in the industry was offering their customers the experience that modern consumers expect. Jonathan started MeUndies to provide a fun and simple offering with a relentless emphasis on quality and service.
Unlike many startup peers, MeUndies has seen tremendous success achieving profitability with double-digit YoY growth since. To date it has sold over 7M pairs of underwear in all 50 states and in 37 countries around the world. MeUndies offers both men's and women's underwear as well as socks, bralettes and loungewear. It opened its first brick and mortar retail location at Westfield Century City, beginning a new chapter in the company's expansion plans.
