Kickfurther Buyers Crowdfinance $10.2 Million of Inventory
Boulder, Colorado (PRWEB) August 22, 2016 -- Buyers on Kickfurther, the leading inventory crowdfunding marketplace that connects companies and individuals, have funded $10.2 Million of inventory for 288 product companies, earning an average greater than 2% consignment profit per month on completed Consignment Opportunities.
“It’s rewarding for our entire team to pass another significant milestone,“ said Kickfurther Co-Founder & CEO Sean De Clercq. “Kickfurther is a crowdfinancing solution that helps companies fund purchase orders, increase revenue, tap into new buyers and grow brand awareness all at the same time. That’s our amazing value proposition.”
“As a rapidly growing company, time is our most important asset. We need to be focused on growing the business, and raising capital takes a lot of time and it takes a lot of resources,” said MM Local Foods Co-Founder & CEO Jim Mills. “The (Kickfurther) process was a really positive experience for MM Local. We’ve been able to merge our customer base with the Kickfurther community, and we had a number of our customers participate in our Kickfurther raise.”
MM Local partners with family farmers to preserve surplus produce at the height of harvest through its two brands: MM Colorado and MM Pacific Northwest. Their production model helps prevent food from going to waste and helps local farmers grow. On Kickfurther, MM Local fans earn Consignment Profit when the brand’s inventory sells.
Kickfurther Consignments are not loans. Buyers provide inventory, marketing, and sales support for businesses, and they earn Co-Op profits when Consignment Inventory sells. In this way, the interests of the businesses are directly aligned with the interests of their Buyers.
