Seedrs FMCG Accelerator Programme to help 10 UK-based FMCG businesses
by Startacus Admin
Seedrs have launched their first FMCG Accelerator Programme dedicated to helping up to 10 UK-based FMCG businesses raise capital through equity crowdfunding. But be quick and apply as applications close 17th July 2019.
Seedrs allows all types of investors to invest as little or as much as they like in businesses they believe in and share in their success. And it allows ambitious businesses in all sectors to raise capital and build community through an efficient, online process.
Seedrs has funded 820 deals to date and has had over £620 million invested on the platform. All investments made through Seedrs offer voting shares to investors and use professional grade subscription agreements. This ensures that investors get the same level of protection that angel investors and venture capitalists enjoy.
With Seedrs already helping 15 food and beverage businesses fund in 2018, and with 10 funded halfway into 2019, they have launched their first dedicated FMCG Accelerator Programme to helping up to 10 UK-based FMCG businesses raise capital through equity crowdfunding. We've featured a good few Seedrs FMCG supported startups on Startacus previously. Pollen + Grace and Coconuts Gracefully to name just two.
Through the Accelerator, Seedrs will support up to 10 like-minded businesses to raise a minimum of £150,000 on the Seedrs platform whilst offering: access to capital introducers; access to leading VCs and institutional investors; expert advice from Seedrs FMCG Alumni companies; access to buyers and FMCG industry experts; exclusive press opportunities to enhance brand visibility nationwide; bespoke support from the Seedrs team.
The Seedrs Food and Beverage Accelerator Programme is open to ambitious UK-based FMCG businesses, who are looking to raise a minimum of £150k through equity crowdfunding, who generated ideally £100k in revenues last year and who are making the transition from small regional listings to the big supermarkets!
Businesses in the programme will also benefit from the support of investors from JamJar, The Craftory and Omakase Investment Club ready to offer their advice in fundraising, the opportunity to pitch to buyers from stockists like Waitrose, Asda and Sourced Market, and advice from leading experts such as Young Foodies.
