NoLogo.com Launches to Disrupt the $1 Trillion Global Home Goods Market
New platform removes designer markups with AI-powered, factory-direct custom furniture. LOS ANGELES, June 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Today marks the official launch of an e-commerce platform redefining how premium furniture is designed, priced, and delivered. NoLogo eliminates retail and brand markups by leveraging AI, a digitally native supply chain, and direct-to-factory production, making high-end, custom furniture more accessible. NoLogo is the brainchild of Kevin Miller (CEO, co-founder of GR0, and former Google executive), Jon Zacharias (CMO, co-founder and President of GR0), and AJ Jain (CTO, formerly of Opendoor and ThinkSys). Together, they aim to bring greater transparency and efficiency to the bloated home goods industry. 'Designer furniture today is priced like luxury fashion — inflated by brand premiums, showrooms, and outdated supply chains,' said Kevin Miller, CEO of NoLogo. 'We're flipping that model so consumers can access premium, custom-made furniture without paying for a logo.' The $1 Trillion Problem: Why NoLogo Exists NoLogo was built to solve a common frustration: furniture prices often have more to do with branding than craftsmanship. Their research shows: How It Works: Upload a Link. Get a Custom Product. Using its AI-powered quoting engine, NoLogo can instantly turn any product link, image, or idea into a custom furniture quote with a 3D rendering. Behind the scenes, its global factory network (the same network used by top luxury brands) enables on-demand manufacturing at near mass-production cost. Key benefits include: More Than Furniture While the initial focus is premium furniture, NoLogo's underlying platform is built for broader categories, including décor, lighting, outdoor, kitchenware, and textiles. 'We're doing more than building a furniture company,' added Jon Zacharias, CMO of NoLogo. 'We're creating a smarter, more transparent supply chain for all custom home goods.' To learn more, visit or contact Kevin Miller at [email protected]. About NoLogo NoLogo is a digital-first platform transforming how custom home goods are made and sold. By removing retail overhead and brand markups, NoLogo delivers premium, made-to-order furniture straight from top-tier factories to your door at transparent prices that reflect true cost.

With the integration of No Logo's creator platform, Antenna Group will begin providing its clients in the climate, real estate and health sectors with a frictionless, efficient tool that enables brands to identify and partner with creators who are authentic advocates for their mission. Through No Logo, brands can tap into a new channel for connecting with purpose-led creators working in areas including advocacy & social impact, sustainable living, fitness & wellness, and more. No Logo operates across the Americas and Europe. Its prior work has encompassed campaigns with global brands and organizations such as Adobe, Meta, REI, and the United Nations, connecting them with creators who collectively reach an audience of over 100 million across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and other platforms. 'Adding No Logo to our technology stack supercharges our partnerships with conscious brands, organizations and enterprises that are driving the world forward in a progressive and redemptive direction,' said Keith Zakheim, CEO of Antenna Group. 'The media landscape has evolved significantly since Antenna was founded in the early 2000's, with influencer marketing emerging as a critical and foundational storytelling platform.. For conscious brands, influencer-powered storytelling demands a higher level of authenticity to truly resonate, and with No Logo we have an innovative tool that empowers our clients to engage their audiences in deeper, more meaningful and enduring ways.' 'Authentic partnerships are at the core of our company; not just with creators, but with the strategic partners we choose to grow with.
