How Your Mates Brewing Co. Successfully Crowdfunded Their Next Phase
The Australian Dream looks different to all of us, for Christen and Matt this looked a lot like opening their own brewery on the Sunshine Coast.
The Campaign
In May 2017 their campaign launched and by the close one month later, they had raised $32,575 - well over their original $30k target. This was largely in part to their great rewards with everything from eskies, shoutouts and cartons to masterclasses and private parties up for grabs. These rewards brought in an impressive total of 228 supporters.
Christen & Matt, Founders
"Mateship is at the core of Australian culture and we wanted our brand to represent the social experience of drinking beer."
Post Pozible
Your Mates have been a force to reckon with after the success of their campaign. They are now brewing and selling over 100,000 litres of beer per annum solely on the Sunshine Coast. This puts them in the lead as the largest wholesaler in the area and they're still growing!
You may have seen them featured in The Courier Mail, The Sunshine Coast Daily, Brews News and they even made an appearance on Shark Tank.
So what's next for Your Mates? They're dipping their toes into the equity crowdfunding pool with our sister site Birchal! With a physical brewery on the horizon now is the perfect time to get in on the ground level.
