Investment thesis

The firm targets growth-stage companies with annual revenues of at least $2 million seeking up to $10 million in capital. It concentrates on CPG categories including beauty and personal care, food and beverage, homecare, pet, and wellness. CULT looks for brands consumers cannot live without and that hyper-connect with their communities.
