About

LYMI Inc. is a California-based company specializing in sustainable women's clothing and accessories, focusing on eco-friendly practices and stylish offerings aimed at environmentally conscious consumers. Founded in 2009 in Vernon, California, LYMI Inc. operates in the sustainable fashion industry, offering eco-friendly apparel and accessories.


The company has successfully raised a total of USD 25. 00 mn through three funding rounds, with the most recent being a Series B round in July 2019, attracting investors such as 14W Ventures, Imaginary Ventures, and Stripes. The company is led by a team of experienced CEOs including Abesamis Querijero and Ginny Blewitt, alongside founders Lee Tracey, Mira Kotecha, Sawan Kotecha, and others. Reformation specializes in sustainable women's clothing and accessories, with a focus on environmentally-friendly practices throughout their product lifecycle.


The company's core offerings include a range of apparel such as dresses, tops, sweaters, jeans, and an assortment of shoes and bags. By utilizing deadstock fabric, which consists of leftover material from other manufacturers, Reformation addresses the issue of textile waste while providing stylish clothing options targeted at eco-conscious consumers. The company aims to serve a demographic primarily composed of women who prioritize both fashion and sustainability, appealing to consumers across the United States and various international markets, including regions in Europe and Asia. The emphasis on sustainable fashion solutions positions Reformation as a leader in the eco-friendly apparel market, capturing the attention of environmentally aware shoppers.


Reformation generates revenue through direct-to-consumer sales primarily via its e-commerce platform, complemented by a growing number of retail locations. Each transaction involves consumers purchasing individual items, with an overall strategy focused on promoting eco-friendly fashion at competitive price points. The company offers a variety of product lines, with notable offerings like the Ziva Dress and the Jeany Silk Dress, each priced to reflect the quality and sustainable sourcing of materials used. The revenue model supports direct sales to individual customers, creating an efficient transaction structure that connects consumers directly with the brand.


The focus on transparency in pricing and the sustainability narrative encourages customer loyalty and repeat purchases, contributing to the company's financial performance. LYMI Inc. plans to expand its product line with new sustainable clothing items designed for the upcoming seasons. The company is also targeting growth in specific international markets, including Europe and Asia, with an expansion goal set for late 2021.


Recent funding from the Series B round will be utilized to support these initiatives, enhance product development, and increase market penetration.
