Story

The Needo, the best bed sheets in the world at an incredible price

What is it?

The Needo is the new, digital and cool brand who is going to revolutionize the bedding market in Europe. We are offering super high quality, sustainable and cool bed sheets and linen at very affordable prices. The Needo will extend the luxury of the best linen for everyone.

The Needo – The best bedding in the world for everyone

· Quality is our obsession: Our sheets and duvet covers are made in Guimaraes, Portugal, with the best 100% cotton in Percale and Sateen. Super soft, warm, and pleasurable. The same fabrics that you can only find in the best hotels of the world. Now our dream is to include the linen in our collection, linen is one of the most luxurious and softest fibers to sleep.

· The best possible affordable price: Only 100€ instead of more than 400€ in department stores. We make this possible by selling directly from producers to consumers and getting good economy of scale.

· Simpler is always better: simple design (no extra cost for unnecessary garments and accesories) and neutral and modern colors.

Luxury sheets for everyone

Why The Needo is different and better?

· Excellence in the materials and  control of the production process: We personally take care of the production in Portugal, in audited factories with OEKO TEX certificate. We ensure that only the best fabrics are used, and supervise all the production, from design, colors, quality and delivery.

Our reusable and recyclable packaging

· Our materials:

–       100% long-staple cotton

–       Percale in 300 Thread count and Sateen in 500 Thread count (WoW!) this order is on the way but  our ultimate goalwe didn’t have enough money to order linen bedding, the most unique and luxurious fiber for bedding,.

–       Made in audited factories in Guimaraes, Portugal.

–       OEKO-TEX certified

–       Sustainable: our packaging is recyclable and factories are in Europe, closer to our customers.


· The key for the incredible prices is distribution and the supply chain: we sell directly to the consumer, with no intermediaries. The market prices for this type and quality bedding is four times higher, but we sell it online, from the factory to the customer. That’s why we can provide the best quality, the best sheets in the world, at a quarter of the cost.

· We keep it simple and cool, taking care of design. Simplicity is also our luxury. We, the founders of The Needo, are two young designers who believe that beautiful things can do life much better and softer. We design simple sheets, with plain colors, with no ornaments or unnecessary accessories. Colors are warm and soft and trendy.

· The customer at the center. We value our clients the most. We will provide personalized attention, and take care of the whole shipping process with extreme care. The growing The Needo community is developing fast under #myfirstneedo

Quality and simplicity: our obsessions

Who are we?

Lucía Gómez (33) and Celia Arroyo (26) are two young female entrepreneurs based in Madrid, Spain. We studied business and design, and love fashion and style. In a trip to Porto, Portugal, in 2020, before the pandemic, we stayed in the coolest boutique hotel, and were amazed by the quality of the linen, produced nearby, in Guimaraes.

None of those bed sheets were available in Madrid at any store at an affordable price. It was clear that the intermediaries, the distribution costs and the complexities of the business were all rising the prices. After visiting the Guimaraes small, family owned factories, we decided that everyone could have those wonderful bed sheets at the best possible price. That’s how The Needo was born – to provide everyone the pleasure of the most comfortable and luxury bedding in the world.

We are two female entrepreneurs – Celia Arroyo and Lucia Gonzalez
