Eight-figure sum for Everdrop

The Munich-based start-up receives a double-digit million sum from investors. Thermomix manufacturer Vorwerk also gets involved via its investment company.

It's hard to get past Everdrop's offer on Instagram. The Munich-based start-up, which offers sustainable cleaning products, has now received a low eight-figure sum from investors. The financing round was led by HV Capital and London-based venture capitalist Felix Capital.

Vorwerk Ventures is also involved. The investment company belongs to Vorwerk, which many people know for its vacuum cleaners and the Thermomix. Vorwerk Ventures' investments include Hellofresh and Thermondo, a start-up for heating systems.

Everdrop was only founded at the end of 2019 by David Löwe, Christian Becker and Daniel Schmitt-Haverkamp. According to Gründerszene, they still own more than 60 percent of their company. Ten percent went to Felix Capital with this round, while existing investor HV Capital owns 15 percent.

The new investors were chosen because of the B2B focus, founder Löwe told Gründerszene. It was only in summer 2020 that Everdrop was able to attract a high six-figure sum from business angels, including Christoph Behn from better ventures.
