FIGBREW LAUNCHES COMMUNITY INVEST ROUND ON WEFUNDER
Press Releases
Information
Huntsville, AL July 30, 2024 – Beanless coffee supplement manufacturer FigBrew has recently
launched its community invest round on WeFunder to rapidly expand its subscription business. Cofounders Marianne and Andy Whitehead started shipping product in 2021 with the goal of addressing
the health and sustainability issues of coffee. Since launch, FigBrew have won multiple awards at
some of the largest coffee festivals in the US – the first time a beanless coffee product has ever done
this.
With 1/8th the water footprint and 1/13th the carbon footprint in a cradle-to-grave analysis with
traditional coffee, FigBrew products to date have offset the planting of 12,000 coffee trees (and
accompanying deforestation) and saved 740,000-gals of water along with 147,000-kg of carbon
compared to traditional coffee. They have also demonstrated that great taste is not a barrier to
sustainability and, being made from upcycled organic figs, also not a barrier to price relief for squeezed
consumers. “We’re ecstatic about the recognition and excitement we’ve created over the last three
years and are grateful to our loyal customers. In return, we’re offering them the oppornity to own a
personal stake in the future of the coffee culture” says FigBrew Co-founder Marianne Whitehead. “We
set out to create a coffee culture that was more inclusive, resilient, and planet-friendly and are proud of
what we’ve been able to accomplish in just a few years.”
FigBrew aim to be the first company in Alabama’s largest city to complete a WeFunder campaign.
Customers and fans can own a stake in the company’s success for as little as $100 under the experience
of a lead investor on WeFunder with its community of four million investors.
