📣 Funding announcement 📣 We proudly announce the successful closure of our first investment round of €1 million led by ACT Venture Partners, with HEARTFELT_ and APY Ventures joining in. 🤩 Since the day we started in late 2021, we have experienced an overwhelming interest from customers, suppliers, and investors alike. Loyalty of our customers and suppliers is remarkable. As the manufacturing supply chain moves away from offshoring trends of early 2000s, near-shoring solutions we offer allow our customers to source from nearby geographies, while increasing quality, eliminating supply chain risks, and without compromising on their budgetary targets. This investment will allow us to improve our cutting-edge technology and keep growing our customer base and partner network at an even higher rate 🚀 We would like to thank our customers and suppliers for being the early adopters of what are set out to do. You will never lose our commitment along this journey to deliver you the best experience you expect from us 🙏 #manufacturing #nearshoring #assembly #qualitycontrol

Sustainable packaging solutions continue to gain traction, with companies focusing on reducing environmental impact through innovative materials and designs. Digitalization and automation are revolutionizing supply chain management, improving efficiency, traceability, and customization in packaging operations. Cross-border partnerships and mergers are on the rise as companies seek to expand their global footprint and access new markets, driving consolidation in the packaging industry.

Sustainable-first Brands need better marketing. If responsible businesses don’t grow, they cannot survive Investor pressures (in a linear economy, where the purpose of a business is profit). Regulations alone will not cut it. It is in our best interests to see progressive brands thrive. It will be good for us and good for the planet. Later next week we are presenting a #sustainabilitymarketing framework at The SEE Conference. It is a critical missing piece of the puzzle. Converting the “conscious non consumers” will reap rich dividends for brands such as Allbirds.
