Our Team

I've been camping in the mountains and surfing in the oceans all my life because nature heals me from the stress of the busy city. I traveled the world and saw the terrible effect of plastic pollution on our environment. I recently became a father and made a promise to help build a world where my daughter can one day swim in a plastic-free ocean.

Pitch

Pangea uses Certified environmental waste WE COLLECT, and WE RECYCLE at our Plastic Innovation Center, to make YOUR HIGH QUALITY PRODUCTS.

Our sunglasses are handcrafted from trash collected in PANGEA Mangrove Cleanup in the Philippines and ocean bound plastic in Bali.

Still early! 1M valuation 2 years ago. Aiming to 5x our valuation in 2 years.

PANGEA has one of the highest impact per dollar sold of any product company we have found. We sell high-quality, durable products like All Birds and Cotopaxi, but make a much more direct positive impact through our own movement with each product sold.

Doing no harm or donating 1% is not enough. Our planet needs more action. We want to be the most impactful brand in the world, powered by profitable sustainable products.

We launched our first sunglasses in January and presold $150K (1800 pairs) in the first month.

On Feb 19th 2023 we gathered 1,400 volunteers in Manila Bay, Philippines, and cleaned 10,800 lbs of trash in 8 hours. This cleaned up one of the dirtiest Mangrove forests in the world.

Instead of polluting the planet, the PANGEA Mangrove Sunglasses collect trash and capture CO2.

We are planting mangroves in North Java, Indonesia, to fully offset our carbon emissions, and go beyond carbon neutral by capturing more CO2 than we produce. By doing it ourselves we cut the middlemen and we can plant 4x more trees per dollar than by outsourcing it like all the other brands do.


Forward-looking financials are projections and not guaranteed.

With this investment round, we will take our brand to the next level by attracting some of the best marketers, content creators, and designers in the industry and developing unique products with a great story to drive massive impact.

The images and designs below were completely generated by AI in less than 15 mins:

We are pioneering a new product development process using Artificial Intelligence. We will implement it for our upcoming line of sunglasses. Using AI saves the company 2.5 months of time in product development. We can go from idea to HD renders in 1 day instead of weeks, cutting down product development costs by 50%.

The outdoors market is huge, with immense growth potential and a wide array of product categories to disrupt. After conquering the recycled eyewear niche, we will expand to disrupt other product categories.

We launched an ad on Times Square to raise awareness for World Oceans Day. It got over 12,000 shares on Twitter.

Our customers are so satisfied that over 90% are active promoters of the brand.
