I am a firm believer in Uncle Waithley’s for a number of reasons. First of all, as a consultant and educator, I have empowered many with the techniques needed to properly evaluate and blind taste… And this non alcohol liquid is the real deal. In addition, this is an authentic story, truly made from a family recipe with deep roots in the Caribbean, and represents what ginger beer is supposed to be. As a black owned and powered business, built from the ground up, supportive of —and supported by —the community, the success of this business is absolutely integral to that very same community. Perhaps most important to me, however, as a professional in this industry, as well as an investor, is my deep faith in my close friend and business associate Karl Williams. I believe in Karl. I have known him and worked with him for almost 20 years. I also believe in Karl’s team, as they are professionals at the very highest level, and they are each deeply committed to this project. I have no question in my mind that the growth you are reading about will only continue to expand exponentially, as we continue to see it not only on the shelves of great retailers like Whole Foods, but in the most important cocktail bars in the US…and one day soon, across the globe. I personally and professionally am deeply committed to this project as well, and look forward to welcoming you as an investor with me, and with others, who have joined in this incredible adventure.
