A note from jill
"It all started 5 years ago when I was selling hundreds of thousands of blankets. I asked myself "Wouldn't it be great to be able to wear a blanket outside the house? Something that is chic, stylish and doesn't look like your are actually wearing a blanket?" So I sat on the floor and after hundreds of iterations, I created what is now known as The Best Sherpa Lounger in The World by Jill Martin - with over 1 million units sold. After launching on October 1st, 2024, we are now creating a lifestyle brand, based around the lounger, as customers have made it clear that they want to be comfy, cozy and live the sherpa lifestyle.
This past year I battled aggressive breast cancer, I was basically unable to leave my house during treatment, so I decided to go out and get all the best IP to use on my "hero" items - tried and true - that I know the customer loves and wants more of.
I am so glad you are here and hope you join me on this Sherpa adventure #sherpasquad"
Xx,
Jill
