North American well-known mattress company Serta Simmons Bedding, LLC (hereinafter referred to as "SSB") and mattress direct selling startup Tuft & Needle (hereinafter referred to as "T&N") recently announced that they have signed a merger agreement to jointly create a consumer Center mattress and bedding company. The detailed terms of the transaction were not disclosed and are expected to be completed within the next 60 days.

SSB is one of the largest mattress manufacturers, distributors and suppliers in the United States and is supported by the private equity fund Advent International.

Founded in 2012 by JT Marino and Daehee Park and headquartered in Phoenix, T&N is a mattress direct startup that aims to create exceptional mattresses and bedding that revolutionize the consumer's sleep experience.

Through the merger with T&N, SSB will strengthen its market leadership and expand its size in the direct sales market. The combined company will provide consumers with an innovative product line, optimized service and higher product value, while helping T&N become the leading direct mattress and bedding brand. The deal is also expected to generate higher operational efficiency in the merger of the two companies.
