Company Description

We believe we make the best towels in the world. Soft. Plush. Luxurious. Anti-microbial. For bath, kitchen, beach, fitness, and all other use cases.In 5 years, we hope to achieve revenues of $100 million by scaling DTC in North America and Europe, partnering with select B2B partners, and starting to execute our retail strategy. We also hope to achieve marketing economics of 4 to 1 LTV to CAC ratio, 20% contribution margin on the initial order. Finally, we aim to take greater ownership of our production to create better products with more efficiency and at lower costs. These projections are not guaranteed.Given the Company’s limited operating history, the Company cannot reliably estimate how much revenue it will receive in the future, if any.

Valuation

Security Description

A SAFE is an agreement between you—the investor—and the company in which the company promises to give you a future equity stake based on the amount you invested. It also involves some kind of a triggering event that must take place in order for you to get your future equity stake. Be careful as you may only get equity if a particular event is triggered.
