This month, vegan brand The Collaborative (previously known as “The Coconut Collaborative”) closed a $7 million funding round led by investment firm PowerPlant Ventures to fuel its rapid expansion efforts across the United States. The company also named a new CEO: Meiky Tollman—a seasoned executive who worked at hummus giant Sabra Dipping Company for 15 years. Identical twin brothers Edward and James Averdieck founded the company in the United Kingdom in 2014 as a healthier and more eco-friendly alternative to dairy-based yogurt and debuted in the US in 2018.

纯素品牌公司The Collaborative（以前称为“The Coconut Collaborative”）于本月完成了由投资公司PowerPlant Ventures领投的700万美元融资轮，以进一步加快其在整个美国的快速扩张发展。该公司还任命了一名新首席执行官（CEO）：梅基·托尔曼（Meiky Tollman）──之前是在鹰嘴豆泥食品巨头Sabra Dipping公司工作了15年的一名经验丰富的高管。2014年，同卵双胞胎兄弟爱德华·艾韦迪（Edward Averdieck）和詹姆士·艾韦迪（James Averdieck）在英国创立了The Coconut Collaborative（“椰子协作”）公司，生产销售更健康环保的乳制酸奶的替代品，并于2018年开始进军美国市场。

The brand currently offers coconut-based yogurt in Plain, Vanilla, and fruit-on-the-bottom options: Alphonso Mango & Passionfruit and Blueberry & Rosemary, which it will be launching in new sizes. The Collaborative will also launch new vegan dessert options, including Vanilla Rice Pudding, Double Chocolate Mousse, and Chocolate Pudding.

这家品牌公司目前供应用椰子制作的纯素酸奶，品种包括原味、香草味和底铺水果（fruit-on-the-bottom）味：阿方索芒果加百香果、蓝莓加迷迭香；此外，还将推出新规格的椰子酸奶产品。该公司新的纯素食甜品也将面市，包括香草米布丁、双色巧克力慕斯、巧克力布丁。

“For me, coming to The Collaborative is motivating and inspiring to work with one of the fastest-growing category growth drivers of plant-based brands on the market that is also purpose driven,” Tollman said. “I’m excited to join the brand as we are committed to having and spreading a collaborative essence and good intentions, something that is very much needed today and will be needed tomorrow. It is a very difficult and challenging time for everyone around the world right now during this unprecedented crisis and we as a small startup team are challenging ourselves to help as much as we can.”

“The Collaborative是市场上促进植物性产品发展的增长最快的公司之一，而且也是属于目标导向型的公司；对于我来说，到这家公司工作令人深受鼓舞和激励，”托尔曼说道。“我很高兴加入这个品牌公司，因为我们共同致力于营造和传播现在和将来都非常需要的协作精神和善意。面对此次前所未有的全球危机，世界上所有人现在都陷入了一个非常艰难和具有挑战性的时期；作为一家小型创业团队，我们正在克服困难尽自己能力去帮助别人。”

To that effect, The Collaborative is donating $15,000 worth of products to support healthcare workers in the San Francisco Bay Area and planning further support in the near future.

为此，The Collaborative公司捐赠价值15,000美元的产品，用于支持旧金山湾区（San Francisco Bay Area）医护人员的工作，并计划在不久的将来加大资助力度。

Despite an economic slowdown during the coronavirus pandemic, several plant-based companies have raised substantial capital in recent months, including Impossible Foods (which closed a $500 million investment in March); plastic-free shampoo company Nohbo (which closed a $3 million funding round in early April); and vegan chicken nugget startup Rebellyous Foods (which secured $6 million in funding last week).

尽管在新冠病毒流行期间经济放缓，但多家植物性产品公司在最近几个月里筹得了大笔资本，其中包括：植物肉公司Impossible Foods（今年三月份获得5亿美元融资）；不用塑料包装的洗护用品公司Nohbo（四月初获得300万美元融资）；生产纯素鸡块的初创公司Rebellyous Foods（上周获得600万美元融资）；等等。
