About Nuud Gum

 

Did you know that each piece of conventional chewing gum contains the equivalent of a drinking straw’s worth of single-use plastic? Nuud is changing that with their plant-based, plastic-free, biodegradable gum that looks and tastes just like traditional gum. Their mission is clear: to rid the world of plastic gum. Their motto says it all – “Chew plants, not plastic!”

 

Every year, 340 billion pieces of plastic gum are chewed worldwide, contributing to long-lasting environmental harm. Nuud aims to revolutionize the £300 million UK gum market and eventually the £26 billion global market. Already nationally listed in Waitrose, Co-op, and Ocado, Nuud is poised for significant growth.

 

BoxFund is offering an exclusive investment opportunity to select professional investors. We are raising £500k in seed capital at a £2 million pre-money valuation, with EIS assurance from HMRC. If you’re interested in learning more, we invite you to attend our launch event or reach out directly to our Head of Investments, Renata Thome, atRenata@boxfund.co.uk. We look forward to seeing you there!
