Wedderspoon Organic
The Challenge
A Vancouver Island-based premium honey brand with strong potential but limited U.S. presence. Needed capital and operational guidance to capture the massive U.S. retail market.
Indigo Capital's Role
Acquired in 2014 (founders rolling equity). Relocated HQ to Pennsylvania, recruited a new CEO, and funded a state-of-the-art facility in New Zealand.
The Outcome
Expanded distribution to 70,000+ points (Whole Foods, Walmart). Became the #1 Manuka honey brand in North America. Sold in 2024 to Masthead Limited, a New Zealand family investment firm, joining its Florenz group of science-based wellness companies.
