Crane & Canopy is taking the home décor industry online, and it is starting with bedding. Businesses no longer need the department stores and big brand names to begin selling their products. Chris Sun and Karin Shieh decided to take advantage of this fact. They are cutting out the middle man.
By using the same manufacturers as designers like Vera Wang, Shieh and Sun have sell their 300 thread count and 100% cotton duvets and shams direct to the consumer. The benefit of purchasing through their site? They are selling the same quality for a fraction of the price.
Their master plan is to soon branch out into other home décor items. But for now, they are owning the bedding space.
