What MOJO Illumination does

MOJO Illumination is a Colorado-based architectural LED lighting manufacturer that designs, manufactures, and supplies custom and standard LED architectural lighting products and industrial-inspired fixtures. Founded and led by Dean Grierson, the company operates from a headquarters and manufacturing facility in Westminster, Colorado, with 1-10 employees. Its product portfolio spans multiple series including GR (Grid Integrated), L6, HP, N1, S, VL, M, and W (Woody), covering linear, recessed, surface mount, suspended, pendant, wall mount, and troffer form factors with apertures ranging from 1" to 4". The company differentiates through BABAA-compliant domestic manufacturing, in-house fabrication capabilities including metal processing, automated powder coating, SMT assembly, and a full testing lab, and extensive customization options including real engineered wood veneers, raw metal finishes, and custom colors.

The company's go-to-market is specification-driven, targeting architects, lighting designers, and commercial building project stakeholders through a representative (rep) network across the United States. All products are priced on a quote-based, project-by-project basis, with no e-commerce or retail distribution. Revenue is generated through one-time hardware sales of proprietary LED fixtures with performance characteristics up to 1250 lm/ft at 120 lm/W. BABAA compliance provides a regulatory moat for federal and government projects requiring domestic content. The company targets commercial architectural projects including offices, conference rooms, libraries, lecture halls, and corridors, with documented installations at brands such as Five Guys. MOJO Illumination operates as a privately held LLC with no disclosed external investment or public listing.
