Daniel Lubetzky, founder of Kind Snacks, has invested in solid format laundry maker Sheets Laundry Club. Sheets, which was founded by Chris Videau, a war veteran, appeared on Shark Tank on Friday, Nov. 19.
Lubetzky will bring his experience growing a health and wellness brands from a small startup to a multi-billion-dollar global company. With his support, Sheets hopes to convert millions of people to using their plastic-free products.
Over the course of 20 years in the US Army, Videau, observed our planet's plastic problem from the sky while in Iraq spending most of his days flying through a black haze of pollution caused by burning trash in city streets. He returned from Iraq with permanent lung damage - no longer able to serve his country.
Videau, who spoke to Happi ahead of the Shark Tank episode, said he has been a big fan of the show for more than a decade. He called the experience “surreal.”
"Daniel is a partner who has built a better-for-you brand from the ground up through every stage of growth," said Videau in a statemnt. "Daniel's expertise in growing a socially conscious business, like he built at Kind, is the type of business we want to grow and we believe his mentorship will help us get there.
"I'm deeply concerned about the environmental challenges our world is facing and am committed to doing my part to help save our planet so that I leave a better one for my children and future generations. What I love about a business like Sheets is that it empowers each and every one of us to play a role in saving our planet by making a small yet impactful change through the products we use,” Lubetzky said in a statement.
Sheets Laundry Club sells products ranging from patented laundry detergent sheets, scent boosters, and dryer sheets to dishwasher detergent packs, bar soaps and plastic-free deodorant. Products can be purchased as single units or as part of a subscription service. Sheets can be found online at sheetslaundryclub.com and Amazon.
