Rhone is a performance apparel brand founded in 2014, operating as Official Partner of the NBA and LPGA. The company is scaling retail footprint aggressively—22 U.S. stores planned by end of 2025—while balancing e-commerce and marketplace growth. Tech stack emphasizes commerce infrastructure (Shopify, NetSuite, Boomi) and marketing automation (Klaviyo, Braze, Domo), with hiring heavily weighted toward sales and customer-facing roles, reflecting a retail-led growth model competing on product execution and supply-chain reliability.
Rhone designs and sells performance-focused athletic apparel, positioning itself around a 'pursuit of progress' brand philosophy. Founded by brothers Nate and Ben Checketts, the company operates a hybrid model combining direct-to-consumer e-commerce, retail store locations, and marketplace channels. By end of 2025, Rhone will operate 22 company-owned retail stores across the United States, serving as community hubs alongside its digital channels. The business is navigating complex product challenges: fabric sourcing from raw greige through bulk production, accurate sizing and measurement across collections, and on-time delivery from overseas suppliers. Current priorities include improving store profitability, expanding e-commerce channels, and maintaining competitive positioning through product quality and technical execution.
Rhone's primary stack includes Shopify for e-commerce, NetSuite for business operations, Boomi for integration, Klaviyo and Braze for marketing automation, and Domo for analytics. Design and collaboration tools include Figma, Adobe Illustrator, and Asana.
Rhone operated an undisclosed number of stores as of the data collection date, with plans to expand to 22 U.S. retail locations by the end of 2025, positioning stores as community and connection hubs.
