Our Place is a Los Angeles-based direct-to-consumer cookware and dinnerware company launched in 2019 by co-founders Shiza Shahid, her husband Amir Tehrani, and Zac (Zach) Rosner. The company designs multipurpose kitchen products intended to replace multiple single-purpose pieces found in traditional 16-piece cookware sets, and positions its range around cooking traditions of multiethnic American kitchens. Its best-known product is the Always Pan, a multifunctional nonstick pan; the current catalog also includes the Perfect Pot, Titanium Always Pan Pro and Titanium Pro Cookware sets, a Carbon Steel Wok, the Wonder Oven Pro countertop appliance, bakeware, utensils, dinnerware and curated bundles, sold both individually and as discounted sets.

Alongside e-commerce, Our Place operates a retail store at 1344 Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Venice, California, which includes an Our Place Cafe serving signature coffee, matcha and tea drinks and hosts in-store pop-ups with food and beverage brands. Customer-facing programs include a 100-day product trial, free shipping above a stated order threshold, free returns, a warranty claims process, a points-based "Dirty Dishes Rewards" loyalty program with tiers, a $20 refer-a-friend credit, and corporate gifting.
