About Harrys
Harrys is building a modern CPG company by putting people first & delivering against real unmet consumer needs.
The companys flagship brand - Harrys - was founded by Jeff Raider & Andy Katz-Mayfield in 2013. After successfully launching & scaling Harrys, Jeff & Andy saw an opportunity to bring their experience building Harrys to other CPG categories where the consumer has also been historically underserved.
Harrys has grown significantly over the last ten years, & is now made up of four brands - Harrys, Flamingo, Lume, Mando - and Harrys Labs, the companys incubation & M&A engine.
The company employs more than 900 people across the U.S., U.K. & Germany, & is the largest CPG company built in the last 20 years.
At Harrys Inc, our mission is to Create Things People Like More whether it's a product, an experience, or an internal tool, we believe in making the things around us better for our customers, & our team.
Our mission extends beyond customers & team, to the community broadly. We believe that the best business models make a positive impact.
So, we set aside 1% of sales across Harrys, Flamingo, & Lume to support our social mission, including through donations to our nonprofit partners.
At the end of the day, the key to our success is our amazing people. From chemists, mechanical engineers, CX associates, to creative directors, sourcing managers, & logistics specialists, the Harrys team is composed of some of the most brilliant, diverse, & humble people youll ever meet.
Our company is a place of inclusion, innovation, & deeply ingrained values.
The Harry's Inc working model is in-office Tuesday, Wednesday, & Thursday. Our beautiful is decked out with bagels on Wednesdays & lunch on Tuesdays & Thursdays, & fully stocked kitchens with snacks, coffee, & drinks everyday.
