I’ve long been fascinated by unique business models. And here’s one. NYC-based Public Goods is a one stop shop for healthy, sustainable, everyday essentials you can trust. They sell products in personal care (shampoo), household goods (cleaners), grocery (cereal). Uniquely, Public Goods has a $59/year membership model which allows them to smooth revenue & offer high quality products at a great value. And everything they sell is branded Public Goods. Imagine: no more spending time choosing between a bevy of seemingly-identical brands. Morgan Hirsh is Founder & CEO. And he’s onto something big, because he recently closed an expansion capital round from L Catterton, the largest & most global consumer-focused private equity firm with $20B under management. Other investors include: Listen, Day One Ventures, Yes VC, Investo, and KF Ventures. In this 20-minute conversation, Morgan reveals how he’s built the team.
