NEON advises Kombuchery on seven-figure financing round

26 November 2021 | NEON has advised Berlin-based startup Kombuchery on a seven-figure financing round with several international investors.

Founder Maximilian Seedorf went to market with his healthier soda alternative, developed on the basis of a tea drink known for millennia, in early 2020 and thus just before the start of the Corona pandemic. Focusing on a multichannel distribution and subscription model, the founder is deliberately targeting the mass market, differentiating himself from local manufactures. Kombuchery is now the most valuable German kombucha brand, has tens of thousands of customers and is listed with more than 300 local retailers, including Edeka, Rewe and KaDeWe.

The fresh capital will be used primarily to drive international expansion, product innovation and team expansion.

Background:

In addition to investors, NEON also regularly advises emerging startups during the founding phase and on subsequent financing rounds. We are pleased to accompany Kombuchery for the first time in the context of a financing round in addition to the ongoing consulting and to further strengthen the relationship.
