PUMP HAIRCARE secures financial investment
PUMP HAIRCARE is poised to continue its rapid growth in beauty e-commerce after securing a cornerstone investment from leading investors, Anacacia Capital.
Australian businesswoman and professional hairdresser, Natasha Jay, launched PUMP HAIRCARE in 2017.
Ms Jay formulated the initial product range to solve the specific needs and feedback of her hairdressing clients.
Made in Australia with eco-friendly packaging, the brand quickly proved popular both domestically and overseas after launching our direct-to-consumer e-commerce website. Sales are almost doubling each year.
“Today, women want salon quality haircare products with the perfect balance of all-natural ingredients and product efficacy,” said Jay. “In just three years, the business grew from a traditional start-up in my lounge room to a large logistics facility focused on delivering our wonderful customers premium products and service at great value.”
“After COVID accelerated our already fast growing e-commerce sales in 2020, we reached a tipping point. We needed support from a partner with experience in helping SMEs get to the next level,” continues Jay.
“Soon after meeting them, we knew that Jeremy and his team at Anacacia Capital would be great partners and add lots of value. Indeed they are already doing so!”
The Company has not disclosed financials. Anacacia Capital typically invests between $15m and $60m into profitable, leading SMEs.
Shareholders in Pump Group Australia now include Natasha Jay, Anacacia Capital and other senior management and directors.
FOREO appoints new CEO
FOREO, the innovation powerhouse packing high-end tech into hand-held at-home devices, has announced a big change in leadership at the beginning of 2021, appointing Boris Trupčević as the new CEO.
The new chief executive officer, a media expert with 25+ years of experience, will lead the company through its next phase of innovation, disrupting the status quo in the beauty category and beyond alongside Filip Sedic, the founder, and the primary inventor of FOREO's award-winning product line.
As the original inspiration behind the brand and its strategic vision, Sedic will ensure a smooth onboarding, and continue to support FOREO’s success in years to come, with focus on product development.
‘’From the very first moment, I have been truly inspired by the boldness, mission, and ambition of FOREO," said Trupčević. "What FOREO achieved so far is outstanding. But there is a lot that lays ahead."
"There is a lot in impacting people's lives and thinking wider - how do you contribute to the broader context; how do you help improve humanity? By making an individual happier, one by one, each being one small step towards a giant leap. If you are genuinely helping people feel beautiful and more confident, to each person this feeling is as big as the universe, and it changes their lives for the better. And this is FOREO’s home turf."
