Poketo was founded in 2003 by husband-and-wife team Ted Vadakan and Angie Myung. The name Poketo (pronounced “poh-keh-toe”) comes from the mispronunciation of “pocket” by Angie’s South Korea-born grandmother. The brand has grown from a small startup into a creative hub and destination for lifestyle goods designed to provide art for your every day.
