🥂🍾Thrilled to share that ecoSPIRITS, a Wavemaker portfolio company, has secured US$3 million in trade finance facilities from Singapore-based DBS Bank. The fresh financing was secured under Enterprise Singapore’s ‘Enterprise Financing Scheme – Green’ (EFS-Green), and is one of the first ‘green’ loans for the packaging technology sector in Southeast Asia. It is a follow-on to ecoSPIRITS’ US$10 million Series A funding round closed last April. 

The loan will help the startup accelerate manufacturing activities, as it works more closely with global clients to integrate circular packaging technology into their supply chains globally.
