At PARKIT, we’re not just building chairs, we’re changing a category. Today, we’re thrilled to open the doors for our community to invest alongside us through our Wefunder campaign. This is your chance to be part of something bold, functional, and soulfully crafted for adventure.
Why PARKIT Is Breaking the Mold in Outdoor Seating
For too long, the outdoor seating category has been stagnant, forgotten. Frames that rust, or fade with only a weekend’s wear. Meanwhile, other iconic gear like coolers, drinkware, and grills have enjoyed reinvention, innovation, and solidified themselves as cultural staples. We believe the chair market deserves the same love and innovation. And we’ve delivered.
Our Momentum in Numbers
-
$14M+ lifetime revenue with 186% year-over-year growth, delivering EBITDA positive through June 2025
-
60,000+ chairs sold and 1,000+ five-star reviews, our customers are proving we’ve nailed product-market fit
-
Each year, we’re reminded that the chair market is massive, projected at $2.8 billion by 2032, growing at 7.25% CAGR, with youth sports accelerating at 10.8% CAGR
From The Mountain, To The Beaches, and Everywhere In Between
Our flagship models, Voyager and Eclipse, are more than seats: aerospace‑grade, ergonomic, accessory-ready gear built for sharing stories at the beach, tailgate, or music festival. These chairs aren't just for sitting; they’re designed to create meaningful moments.
The demand is speaking loud and clear:
-
150+ specialty retail locations already stocked, with plans to reach 750+ by 2027
-
PARKIT products can be found in REI, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and more across direct-to-consumer, wholesale, corporate gifting, and international channels
-
Brand collaborations with Volkswagen, Corona, Google, and others expand our community in creative and impactful ways.
Modern Distribution, Timeless Values
At our core, PARKIT stands for Presence, Adventure, Responsibility, Kindness, Independence, and Tenacity. Our founders, Steven and Lauren Wilcox, bring proven expertise in distribution and market expansion. For steven, this expertise was nurtured within the walls of global lifestyle brands like Oakley and Quiksilver — and for Lauren, it came with leadership and operational rigor gained from leading internal teams and closing external partnerships at publicly traded companies such as Hippo and First American Insurance. Their experiences fuel our strategic discipline, creative grit, and relentless focus on meaningful design. They have created a team around them with expertise and tenacity fueled by belief in the vision to be the HERO of outdoor seating.
They dreamed up PARKIT not behind desks but around campfires, with intention and heart. That vision lives in every seat we craft.
