The Brubaker
Understanding the investment opportunity
The Brubaker is a digital native clothing brand (DVNB) that manufactures in the same factories as major brands like Carolina Herrera, Lacoste and Hackett. Because it exclusively uses the web as a means of sale, it is able to achieve savings for the end customer by avoiding intermediaries.
Therefore, the price of the product is 50 % below the competition in similar qualities, and by using technology they are able to anticipate the demand for their products and manage their stock in an advanced way.

Reasons to invest View more data
- The Brubaker is a team of serial founders with experience in creating, growing and selling businesses.
- The company has a multi-disciplinary team of 9 people with experience in fashion, ecommerce, marketing, production and retail, both in large corporations and startups (Netjuice, Tuenti, Cash Converters, Jazztel, Pompeii, etc...).
- They have a Board of Directors composed of entrepreneurs with extensive experience who are also partners of the company as Evaristo Babé, Diego Ballesteros, Vincent Rosso, etc....
- They have made a global Top Model like Andrés Velencoso bet on their brand, becoming a partner of The Brubaker and offering in return image rights, which will help the growth of the company's numbers.
- Business model and growth in revenue validated, multiplying turnover by 8 from 2014 to 2016 and it is expected, according to estimates, that revenue in 2017 will be 21 times that of 2014.
- They have managed to increase their product margins from 38% to 55% in a year and a half, with forecasts of reaching 65% in 2018.
- They have a brand that makes their community (registrations and social networks) grow up to 3 digits, which is increasingly loyal, as can be seen in the very high repetition rate of buyers customers, which is 8% to 10% monthly.
- Native digital brands of clothing or DVNB (as well as other products) are revolutionizing both in the U. S. and Europe's retail and end-customer sales model, beating traditional commerce both in growth and repetition rates. The new customer is much more attracted by brands that are more transparent, direct, honest and fast in responding to their demands and with much more competitive prices, giving more for less.
- Large distribution groups do not have the speed, equipment or technology to be in front of the new consumer of the new demand, so there is a clear window of opportunity for the fastest, which will lead to better chances of selling operations to those first players.

"The Brubaker is reaching a very strong maturity point, at the beginning of its international expansion with 5% of its turnover. They have achieved very important sales growth and are achieving very significant levels of efficiency through stock management and the use of economies of scale, without doubt a project that I want to continue betting on.
The team has also been strengthened and is now ready to move to the next level, with professionals from the sector with previous experience in large emerging and consolidated companies.
I think it's the perfect time to step in and reinforce its investment."
