### Active Founders

### Lev Glushkovskii, Founder

Previously co-founded SabersPro and bootstrapped the company from 0 to $10M+ in sales in 2.5 years, where he restructured the supply chain with factories increasing margins by 15% saving ~1M in profits. Dropped out from the Business, Technology, and Entrepreneurship program (BTE) at NYU Stern.



### Dylan McFarland, Founder

In high school bootstrapped a furniture startup and in under a year went from selling on Craigslist to running a 40-person factory in Shenzhen. Took those insights and dropped out NYU Stern BTE to run Terra, a platform that streamlines supply chain creation for growing companies.

**The Team**
------------

Hello all! We’re [Dylan]( and [Lev]( from Terra, and we’re _really_ passionate about making custom manufacturing accessible to everyone.



**🚨 The Problem 🚨**
---------------------

We’ve been working with suppliers globally since we were freshmen in high school. If you can think of a costly manufacturing or shipping mistake, we’ve likely already made it a dozen times over. But through our experiences building supply chains, we’ve routinely run into the same issues:

⚙️ Way too many moving parts

⚠️ The best factories have high minimum order requirements

👎 Current software is either too rudimentary or ridiculously complex

**✅ The Solution ✅**
--------------------

*   Forget spending weeks juggling multiple supplier group chats, spreadsheets of shipping quotes, and financial docs. Terra automatically matches you with the right partners through a single dashboard, allowing you to launch products in minutes.
*   We aggregate demand based on similarity, ensuring you’ll get access to the best pricing and factories regardless of order size.
*   Our platform is completely modular. Build a supply chain entirely from our pre-vetted partners, onboard your existing suppliers, or use a combination of both. No constrictions, only flexibility.
