The Growth Rocketship: Using AI and Human Expertise to Build Tomorrow’s Leading Brands With A-Frame

April 23, 2026
Latham speaks with A-Frame’s Founder and CEO about how the innovation and product development platform is navigating the challenges of scaling, the macro forces shaping AI and infrastructure, and the strategy behind capital allocation across a growing portfolio.

A-Frame Brands identifies emerging signals in culture, consumer behavior, and category white space — then moves fast to bring the right products to shelf. They work two ways: co-creating private-label and exclusive product lines with the world’s leading retailers, building a portfolio of standalone brands with world-class talent partners across beauty, personal care, fragrance, home care, and pet care.

In this episode of Connected With Latham, Haim Zaltzman, Global Vice Chair of Latham’s Emerging Companies & Growth Practice, sits down with A-Frame’s Founder and CEO, Ari Bloom, to discuss A-Frame’s business model, how the company has evolved, and what draws retailers and talent partners to A-Frame.
