Strengths
says, "I love the idea of getting more local produce in large grocery stores. It is especially good timing given that supply chains have been ruined by COVID and stores are often missing stock on a variety of items."
Advice
says, "Keep expanding to more regions and more customers. The bigger you can grow, the better! But do it sustainably, of course..."

What Investors Say

David Simmons, CFA, CAIA
LEAD INVESTOR
Invested $10,000 this round
If you look across your portfolio of successful companies, there are several themes that probably emerge around these investments. Whenever a newcomer is able to take an old business, using antiquated methods and apply 21st century technology, this is a winning investment strategy. I can't imagine a more legacy business than farming and I'm sure the processes are fairly embedded in routine rather than optimization. Big Wheelbarrow is in a prime position to gain market share and be in a good position for future expansion in terms of horizontal and vertical integration. They are also checking the societal and environmental boxes around reducing carbon emissions, by promoting local produce, and helping small farms over large companies. I'm excited to endorse and benefit from this investment! I hope you join us in this adventure.
