Duo kickstarts plans to become major 'clean' consolidator

Octillion Capital Partners, a London-based duo of ecommerce entrepreneurs, aims to become a nucleus of truly ethical brands with its acquisition of a leading European clean coffee and food supplement company, Lean Caffeine Ltd.

They are next looking to acquire a further 3-6 companies over the next 18 months, with a focus on food, beverage and beauty brands that fit the growing demand for health-conscious, clean and better-living options.

Lean Caffeine Ltd, which offers the gold standard of toxin-free coffee and food supplements, marks the first step in Octillion’s mission to challenge the smoke and mirrors practices of the ‘Big 10’ retail titans, which have eroded consumer choice when it comes to making informed purchasing decisions around nutrition-targeted products.

Kunle Campbell, Octillion Capital Partners co-founder, says: “Octillion is founded on a shared passion to make sustainable, clean, ethical brands accessible to more consumers. By finding and acquiring exciting, challenger brands who share this mission, we want to spark a revolution in the retail space and offer health-conscious consumers better choice, quality and transparency about the products they buy.”

Ayo Disu, Octillion Capital Partners co-founder, adds: “Our acquisitions will aim to raise the profile of the brands we work with and create a trusted catalog of quality products that empower more people to make informed lifestyle decisions. We’re committed to a quality-over-quantity approach that is deliberate, conscious and meaningful when it comes to how we choose our brands.”
