How I Built A $1.2 Billion Vegan Start-Up Called Eat Just | Founder Effect

[@ngana8755]

This is hands down the best CNBC Make It that I've watched so far.

[@nyakarundi]

Raising funds for an idea is not just difficult, but by raising millions you got to be connected, I feel like there is a back story he is not sharing.

[@thebrinksf69]

Right. The story mentions it like, just go ask for it and you'll get it.

[@upsidedownChad]

Yes

[@blackumbrella6199]

No Josh doesn't have any connection at the time. All he had to do was tell his early investors that "You can go to Las Vegas and lose millions like a loser. Or you can bet your money on me. At least you got some balls doing the latter."

[@blakeaaron5698]

Exactly; a simple pitch about a totally hypothetical, unproven concept doesn’t lead any investor to entrust you with half a million $’s - but however he did it, it got done and he worked it out.

[@cocochocookiedough]

It was the other way around. Investors found him.

[@GoldRushCity]

Congrats to Josh and the whole team over there! I worked there in 2016 (company was called Hampton Creek back then) but glad it is continuing to thrive and grow. Wishing the brand much success.

[@qucee-fu]

Don't understand how he easily got investments along the way without having a recipe or product

[@kingofd00m]

Huge amounts even

[@gidd]

You must have no idea how VC works

[@mika_chu]

@@gidd explain; it’s not easy to get an investment as it seems from all the videos and founder stories. You have to have something, or solid background, or something

[@gidd]

@@mika_chu I know Im an aspiring founder myself and alot of my circle are tech founders. I know how difficult the pitching process is

[@OnyoMeji]

I hundred % agree. No expertise, no technology, no proven record...and they just gave him money. Most of use would be laughed out the office.

[@edyann]

So he is the inventor of that product. Wow. I'm vegan since 1990 and while I'm so grateful for new alternatives to the "real thing," I'll stick to my tofu veggie scramble, haha. But hey- one thousand congratulations to him! I own a small vegan shop here in my country and his product always flies off the shelf!

[@maddog3768]

Tofu is poison!

[@edyann]

@@maddog3768 Well then you're getting poisoned as well and you know why? Because 90% of all NON ORGANIC soybeans are given to livestock. NINETY PERCENT. I only eat organic, non gmo tofu and I'm healthy as a mare. It'll be 32 years this October of eating this way and wouldn't change it for the world. Have a good one, Maddog!

[@EricaGamet]

I eat both the liquid Just Egg and the folded patties... I prefer the latter because they can be frozen and I can make them quickly. They taste amazing to me... and smell like real eggs!

[@sushantbhorge2703]

I'm vegan now and wanna start a shop too. I'd like to know more from you as you're already experienced

[@shubhamhissaria707]

I think he rediscovered chilla 😅 Chilla or Cheela is nothing but an Indian style pancake. Traditionally, these are popular in North India where both sweet and salty variants are available.

[@thewreckedup]

Oh, this is nothing like a cheela. Just Egg is incredibly egg like. Cheelas not so much.

[@user-sr5kj6ej9z]

My takeaway from this is that if you have capital you can do some really great things by outsourcing. Unless you can raise funds this isn't really viable, but if you already have capital from another business, you could definitely launch something like this.

[@mytravls]

I knew it had some Indian connection. Mung bean is served as a moonglet in india for decades. Not in a scrambled way but idea is the same. Fresh lentils are grounded and turned into a pancake

[@divine7223]

Not everything is connected to India, wake up

[@Keji839]

@@divine7223 he only connected mungbean to India. Not Everything

[@Sana-ik8fo]

@@divine7223 He is correct. Mung beans are a staple in India and this cannot be a coincidence. Even the book author C.K. Prahalad (Bottom of Pyramid) he mentioned in this video is Indian. So, some inspiration might be there definitely

[@ElsjeMassyn]

It is so sorry that this product has not taken off in South Africa yet. I havent found one place in Gauteng, one of our provinces to buy Just Egg. Well congrats to Josh for taking a chance on Just Egg He has made a great name for himself. Lab meat ..... wont ever eat it as a vegan

[@BiesingerFIREJourney]

Very inspirational story!! Totally agree that companies and corporations have the ability to do a lot of good, and help those in need.

[@TheSukanya777]

The future is vegan 💚

[@BlakeMadsen]

The only product they made that I LOVED was Just Mayo, which has been impossible to find for the past few years.

[@RS-jb1lf]

This was a good video more about how to raise capital and attract backers than the actual end product or the enterprise built. He really said he had raised $700-800m from investors. Wow.

[@laina-brown]

He's so right when he is talking about you could come up with something in the lab, but that doesn't mean you can scale it. Running a business is a whole different ball game than creating something.

[@Jamie-ro6sx]

Please come to the UK. We need more vegan business here. We also need affordable vegan foods in the home.

[@ryanharvey9800]

There's no such thing as affordable vegan food it's so sad a beyond burger made by vegetables Is like 4 dollars a patty but I can get a cheeseburger for 1 dollar or less governments need to stop subsidizing meat and start subsidizing plant based foods

[@Peaceable]

@@ryanharvey9800 beyond burgers where I live have gone down to 2 dollars a burger

[@mountainman6172]

​@@ryanharvey9800 Actually there is. All of the supermarkets in the UK have their vegan range. You can now get Oat Milk (same ingredients and oat content as Oatley) for £0.89 and all of the Top 4 have appetising vegan range.

[@purplegal05]

I love just eggs. Great alternative to eggs

[@maddog3768]

I have 2 eggs for you!

[@thinklet7]

How eggs does it taste like ? Would you say 60%

[@TBassFactory]

Props to him but that’s some nasty stuff. Making things to be like the real thing makes me confused when the real thing is healthy.

[@carmenlunzer-schramel3291]

I find it very unfortunate that Wiesenhof (part of the PHW Group) one of the largest German manufacturers of poultry products, has secured the rights for the distribution of Just Egg for all of Europe...in my opinion, this is not in line with the philosophy of the company and although I am very happy about the product, I will not consume it for this very reason, as I do not want to support such companies as Wiesenhof.

[@vanessaland5090]

But if you think about it, maybe if this line does well for them, they will do less of their traditional poultry practice. Either way, the companies want to make a profit so if this can replace their traditional lines, they will do less of the stuff you don't like?

[@claudiopomo963]

I know they also have a deal with Italian egg company Eurovo, the biggest in Europe, to secure distribution for the product. As bad as I can feel about part of the money buying JustEgg in Europe is going to an egg producing company, for a product replacing the consumption of eggs this is an incredible opportunity, since it will be immediately in all supermarkets where Europvo or Wiesenhof have deals, and it will be hopefully placed next to eggs and not in the vegan aisle, reaching an inconceivable number of consumers otherwise. And hopefully, it will push these companies to invest more and more in the plant-based sector in the future!

[@beamercrew]

Get a grip.

[@jaywong3097]

But as you can see, Wiesenhof is making a change. You are now a small part of why change will be slow.

[@xena8_8]

@@vanessaland5090 Or they bought the rights and won’t sell the product at all so people don’t switch from their meat alternatives

[@Infinitelybetter466]

I will be on the next episode of this show. God willing

[@theendurance]

he's totally right about capitalism vs non-profit. capitalism has done far more good for the world than any charity or non-profit could ever dream of doing!

[@DrJohnnyJ]

No. The Red Cross, Oxfam, The Salvation Army and many others have helped millions when capitalism failed. Capitalism does nothing for Ukranian refugees.

[@khalidalali186]

You can say that again!!

[@wackymojo3419]

in many ways that's true because a capitalist business is out of business if it doesn't gather capital while a non-profit is out of business by default and it doesn't care too much to stay 'in business'

[@LeahLeah222]

What even was that transition to the meat part at the end? I didn’t understand what happened why he had to get rid of his board. This video was weird.

[@EricaGamet]

The bottles go for around 7.50 and contain 8 servings (more like four in my household) and the folded eggs are about $1.25 each. Considering what eggs cost at the store (not to mention what the production of them cost the environment, etc.), it's a good deal. I'm not a vegan or even a vegetarian, but I love the concept and the taste is amazing!

[@undertheivy299]

So interesting! This is one of my favorite products and so nice to not cause additional harm to animals.

[@adamandsteve13]
