Profile

Williams-Sonoma, Inc.WSMConsumer Discretionary

Sells kitchenware, furniture, bedding, decor and gifts across a portfolio led by Pottery Barn, West Elm and Williams Sonoma. Revenue comes through e-commerce, stores, catalogs and business customers; most merchandise is sourced abroad.

Sells kitchenware, furniture, bedding, lighting, decor and gifts through Williams Sonoma and Williams Sonoma Home; Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids and Pottery Barn Teen; West Elm; Rejuvenation; Mark and Graham; GreenRow; and Dormify. The brands span cooking, whole-home furnishings, children's and teen rooms, personalized gifts and compact living.

Reaches shoppers through e-commerce, catalogs, stores and business-to-business sales, supported by in-house design, integrated sourcing, marketing and data analytics. Company-operated retail extends from the United States to Canada, Australia and the United Kingdom, while franchisees serve several Asian and Latin American markets.

Pottery Barn is the largest brand. Demand follows discretionary spending, housing conditions and the holiday season. Most merchandise comes from foreign suppliers, so costs and availability depend partly on tariffs and supply-chain continuity.
