Dollar General
Dollar General is one of the largest discount retailers in the United States, operating more than 21,000 small-box stores that sell everyday essentials - food, cleaning supplies, health and beauty aids, paper products, apparel and seasonal goods - at low price points. Founded in 1939 in Tennessee, the company built its business by placing convenient, value-focused stores in small towns and rural communities that larger chains often overlook, and roughly 75% of the U.S. population lives within five miles of a Dollar General store.
ONDO
ONDO is a New York-based direct-to-consumer apparel brand that reinvented the no-show sock. Founded by former JP Morgan banker Daniel Shim in 2020, ONDO uses a patented, cut-and-sewn silicone grip strip - rather than the usual rubber dots - to keep low-cut socks from slipping off. Built on Woolmark-certified Australian merino wool and certified organic cotton, the brand backs every pair with a No Slip Guarantee and has grown to more than 20,000 five-star reviews while expanding into headbands, compression crew socks, and other everyday essentials.
