π©πͺπ₯€ Holy, a Germany-based DTC beverage startup, raised β¬10.5M for its soft drinks. It sells a ready-to-mix powder, which is then more sustainable than existing beverages (as it doesnβt ship the same weight). This smart powder format also enables the startups to ship it directly to the consumer. It is also said to be a healthier alternative to leading brands. With this funding, the startup wants to expand its international and retail footprints.
