- Together into a successful future
LONDON, Feb. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Kärcher becomes the lead investor in Mysoda, the Finnish manufacturer of sparkling water makers. Together, the partners will drive the marketing and further development of sustainable water sparklers.
"From the first meeting, Kärcher has felt like a perfect partner for us," says David Solomon, CEO of Mysoda. "Kärcher shares our conviction of putting sustainability first, and I get really excited thinking about our cooperation and opportunities. They have decades of experience in sustainability, brand building, marketing and expanding to new markets. After all the startup pains, it also feels really good to make the move from an underfunded startup to a well-capitalized growth company. We compete with bigger companies, and thanks to this substantial minority investment now we have the resources to stand our ground."
"We are positive about the innovative power of Mysoda, and are happy to actively support the company in its further growth. Mysoda's products are convincing in terms of design, usability and environmental friendliness," says Hartmut Jenner, Chairman of the Board of Management of the Alfred Kärcher SE & Co. KG. "Thanks to our unifying element water, we will create numerous synergies for a successful future together."
Mysoda develops and produces sparkling water makers for the consumer market as well as flavor concentrates and CO2 cylinders that go with them. Like all sparkling water makers, the products by Mysoda contribute to the drastic reduction of transportation and the elimination of PET bottles. Moreover, with their plastic-free design, they have a key advantage in sustainability in comparison with the competition. Mysoda uses no fossil plastic in production and produces its sparkling water makers from biocomposite, a wood-based and renewable material that has its origins in waste from forestry and paper industry.
