Springdale Ventures

We are partnering with resolute founders, who are pursuing  their passions, and helping them create meaningful, sustainable brands.

Like the founders we work with, our world-class team is dedicated to achieving results through teamwork. We leverage our team of entrepreneurs, operators and investors’ expertise and expansive networks to source the most transformational founders and enhance the value of our portfolio brands.

I’m incredibly grateful to be recognized as part of the Nosh.com Notables Class of 2024! 🎓 Transitioning from founder/operator of natural products brands to co-founding Springdale Ventures has been a rewarding journey. The incredible spirit and resilience of CPG entrepreneurs, along with the strong partnerships we build, continually inspire and drive me to evolve and innovate. ⚡️

It’s a true honor to invest in and support our portfolio companies ❤️, and to collaborate with our amazing team and so many outstanding individuals in our industry. I’m excited and optimistic about the future, as entrepreneurial brands continue to transform culture and reshape the consumer products landscape.
Thank you to Nosh and all my peers for this recognition!

The Taylor Swift Economy is a real thing, and the The Wall Street Journal just announced its next commodity: Friendship Bracelets. ✨

In a popular song, Taylor sings about making friendship bracelets—so many #swifties made their own.

Now, "Fashion designers are upgrading the Eras-Tour accessory from plastic to enamel, gold and even diamonds, with prices ranging from $130 to over $5,000... Swift seems to approve of the upgrade; in January, the 34-year-old wore a Wove Made bracelet with white diamond “thread” and yellow gold beads. Similar designs retail for $6,000."

T-Swift fan or not, there's a BIG lesson here. "Friendship bracelets" are a product all about community. In this example, brands have capitalized on selling a product that's a gateway for consumers to join a community representing something so much bigger. 

Some of the world's most successful CPG brands revolve around one thing: ➡️ COMMUNITY ⬅️. They have built a loyal fan base of brand/product advocates, and that's the foundation of an incredible marketing strategy.

So, how does your consumer brand/product create community?

Name a more iconic duo: 🍕 & 🍷... We'll wait.

Did you know that In Good Taste sells a Pizza + Wine Pairing? "Where every bite and sip offer a blend of familiarity and adventure," IGT explains.

The kit includes Neapolitan Dough Mix, Savory Red Sauce, Pepperoni, and 8 IGT wines - perfect as a gift for any wine/pizza lover... or you. 👀

IGT never fails to come up with brilliant ideas to keep their consumer goods (mini wine bottles and subscriptions) fresh and exciting. Because of fun ideas like this, IGT sells out of their limited-time collections, PLUS, they are continuously featured in gift guides and magazines further spreading their reach.

Brilliant work, IGT! We're proud to have you within our portfolio of CPG brands.
