ABOUT SLOOMOO INC.

Sloomoo Inc. is an immersive experience based on slime and all things #satisfying. Founded in late 2019 by two best friends who found slime healing during difficult times, the mission of the company is to deliver joy. Playing with slime taps into four of the five senses: it’s visually mesmerizing; it smells delicious (Sloomoo slimes are hand-made and scented); it offers soothing ASMR sounds; and it feels both relaxing and playful. The environment is made for digging in with your hands and getting off of your screens, whether you’re a kid or a kid-at-heart. A finalist of Fast Company’s Innovation by Design Award, the design of Sloomoo is glossy, contemporary, and accessible. There are five locations - New York, Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, and Los Angeles - with more on the way. Mission driven, the brand supports mental fitness through a partnership with the Goldie Hawn Foundation’s MindUP and is committed to neurodiverse inclusivity (over 10% of the workforce is neurodiverse and often bringing job coaches to work).
