JamJar Investments
JamJar Investments LLP is a London-based venture capital firm founded in 2013, specializing in seed and early-stage investments primarily in the consumer services and products sectors, as well as technology and non-tech industries, including food and drink. The firm targets high-growth consumer brand businesses in Europe and typically invests between £0.15 million and £1 million in initial rounds, with the capacity for follow-on investments. JamJar is distinctively led by the founders of innocent drinks, who bring over 14 years of operational and commercial experience from building the brand to its acquisition by Coca-Cola. This background enables JamJar to understand the entrepreneurial journey, including its challenges and potential solutions, and fosters a collaborative investment approach, often preferring to work with teams rather than individuals.
