Zazzle

Zazzle is a leading American online marketplace specializing in print-on-demand and personalized merchandise. Founded in 2005 by Robert Beaver and his sons, Bobby and Jeff Beaver, the company operates as a platform where independent designers and brand partners (such as Disney and Hallmark) can upload art to be applied to a vast array of physical products.

Manufacturing for Zazzle products occurs through a decentralized model. The company operates its own proprietary manufacturing and fulfillment centers, most notably a large facility in Reno, Nevada, which handles a significant portion of their North American production including apparel and embroidery. Additionally, Zazzle utilizes a global network of independent manufacturing partners and 'Makers' to produce items closer to the customer's location. This distributed network includes facilities in the United States, Ireland (through their European headquarters in Cork), and various other international locations to facilitate worldwide shipping.

Ownership of Zazzle remains primarily private. The company was built with significant venture capital backing from high-profile investors like Kleiner Perkins and John Doerr. As of 2026, Zazzle Inc. continues to operate as an independent entity headquartered in Menlo Park, California, overseen by its founding family and specialized executive team.
