On Starting An Insulated Drinkware Brand And Growing Sales 100%
I am Jon Fox, the founder, and CEO of EcoVessel.
My journey started when I set out to find a safe reusable water bottle to replace the current plastic bottles that contained BPA. When I couldn't find any bottles that combined function, style, and safety, EcoVessel was born. At EcoVessel, we're inspired by a thirst for adventure and a respect for the planet. We are a family-run business in Boulder, Colorado that creates premium-quality hydration bottles and reusable products that blend style, performance, and unique features. Our triple insulated drinking vessels maintain the optimal temperature of beverages while reducing dependence on single-use plastics.
EcoVessel donates a minimum of 1% of sales to environmental nonprofits through our partnership with 1% for the Planet and 5% of all our website sales. Our signature TriMax insulation keeps beverages cold for up to 150 hours and hot for up to 24 and all of our products include a 100-Year Warranty. Everything we do is led by our mission and tagline: Better Vessel, Better World.
Our sales have grown every year and our products can now be found in over 20 countries and major retailers such as REI and Target.
