Mulroom tackles the industry's age-old problems by eliminating middlemen and implementing a lean, technology-enabled supply chain that cuts down waste and reduces costs. By leveraging AI-powered demand forecasting, the company ensures each piece of furniture is crafted only when needed, minimizing overproduction and responding swiftly to changing consumer preferences.

This model not only supports local craftsmanship but also offers consumers bespoke, ethically-produced furniture at competitive prices.

The company also embraces a circular economy approach, focusing on durability, repairability, and recyclability. This sustainable model is a significant departure from the traditional "make-use-dispose" cycle that dominates the furniture market.
