Company profile

Eponym company profile

eponym has been designing and building high-quality prescription eyewear in Williamsburg, Brooklyn since 2010. Exploiting inefficiencies in the monopolistic eyewear industry, eponym is able to deliver its product to market at less than half the cost of traditional retail prices. From humble beginnings in direct-to-consumer selling, eponym now has multiple distribution channels, including a dynamic web presence, a network of retail shop-in-shops, and a growing business in helping exciting fashion brands create and distribute their own eyewear via fun and delightful brand immersive experiences online (and offline). We're building a company to last - we have revenue, a loyal client base, sustained and expanding growth. We’re backed by all-star group of investors and folks who have built some of the most successful fashion brands in the world
