Earth Brands Raises $10M Strategic Investment Led by Cimpress

Earth Brands has secured a $10M strategic investment from Cimpress, which will enhance our ability to provide custom sustainable packaging solutions for food service businesses. This investment marks a significant milestone in our journey to streamline the ordering process for businesses of all sizes.

Why we started Earth Brands

Five years ago, we saw how hard it was for food service businesses to get custom products. Want branded cups or packaging? Get ready for huge minimum orders, long lead times, and a lot of back-and-forth just to place an order. That process works for big chains. It doesn't work for the coffee shop down the street, the growing restaurant group, or the brand that wants to test something new.

So we built a better way. We’ve made it easy for businesses of any size to order high-quality, custom sustainable products, with low minimums, fast turnarounds, and a simple ordering experience – via Earth Store. 

Why Cimpress

Cimpress has spent decades making customization accessible to businesses of every size. Through VistaPrint and its other brands, it has helped millions of small businesses get custom products that used to be out of reach.

That's exactly what we're doing for food service. Cimpress gets our mission, and they bring the scale, infrastructure, and knowledge to help us move faster.

What this means for our customers

This investment goes straight into making Earth Brands better for the people who order from us.

Here's what you can expect:

- Access to more products. We're expanding our catalog so you can get more of what you need in one place.

- Faster turnarounds. More production capacity means your orders get to you even sooner.

- Better pricing. Greater scale lets us offer more competitive prices.

- Less friction. We're investing in a smoother ordering experience and back-of-house management.

What isn't changing

Earth Brands is still Earth Brands. Same team. Same mission. Same obsession with building a better way for businesses to buy custom products. Your account, your contacts, and the way you work with us all stay the same. We just have more resources behind us now.

Thank you

We wouldn't be here without our customers, who trusted a young company with their brand. Or our team, who built this from the ground up. Or the partners and supporters who believed in us early. And of course, thank you to Cimpress for backing what we're building.

Five years down; many more to come.
