Oura Ring Corporate Office

Oura

Oura Ring was founded in Finland in 2013. The ring is a smart ring designed to track sleep and other activity, such as heart rate and body temperature.

The Oura ring is intended to be comfortable and not disrupt sleep or exercise. The operation of the Oura Ring is based on infrared LEDs.

The ring is extremely popular among celebrities, such as Prince Harry of England and Jennifer Anniston.

History

In March 2022, the company announced that it had sold more than 1 million rings.

In May 2022, Oura and fashion brand Gucci launched a ring with details in 18-karat yellow gold. It comes with Oura’s Gen3 technology.

In August 2023, soon after the release of the third-generation ring, Oura released a US$5.99 monthly membership (with a one-month free trial) for their products that put certain aspects of user data behind a paywall.

The release of this membership program received much criticism and anger from Oura users and reviewers who highlighted the expensive cost of the membership on top of the US$299 price of the Oura Ring.

Oura Ring maintains a corporate office in the USA in San Francisco, California.

Amana Appliances Corporate Office

Amana

Amana, best known for its home appliances, was founded in 1934 by George Foerstner as The Electrical Equipment Company. The company manufactured commercial walk-in coolers.

In 1947, Amana manufactured the first upright freezer for the home, and in 1949 it added a side-by-side refrigerator. In 1950 the company was sold to a group of investors, including its founder, and became Amana Refrigeration, Inc.

In 1967, Amana introduced a consumer model of the Radarrange, the first popular microwave designed for home use.

History

In 1997, the company sold off its home heating and air conditioning division to Goodman Global, which still uses the Amana name.

That same year, Maytag, now part of Whirlpool, acquired the Amana line of home appliances.

Bob Vila often lists Amana appliances as some of the best products that homeowners can buy.

As Amana expands and begins to manufacture and sell different types of appliances, this creates a wealth of new job openings.

Amana maintains a corporate office in Benton Harbor, Michigan.

Gilt.com Corporate Office

Gilt.com

The company was co-founded in 2007 by Kevin Ryan, Michael Bryzek, and Phong Nguyen, with Alexis Maybank, and Alexandra Wilson joining shortly after the company’s inception.

The founders modeled Gilt after Vente-Privee, an online fashion retailer in France. The original business plan consisted of “flash sales,” selling a limited number of luxury designer items at steep discounts for a brief period.

According to Business Insider, during its “hyper-growth years, the company overextended itself and lost focus”, as the expanded business segments such as “Full-price retail, travel, and food were sucking resources from Gilt’s core categories — discounted women’s fashion”, and Gilt was forced to sell these non-core businesses at a loss. 

History

In 2016, Hudson Bay acquired Gilt for $250 million.

Gilt filed for an IPO in November 2021 but it seems stalled due to the company’s failure to turn a profit.

The Simon Property Group gave Gilt a much-needed cash boost of $280 million to launch an online outlet e-commerce store.

Gilt.com maintains a corporate office in New York, New York.
