Beaming businesses up to their true potential, The Mothership Group focuses on acquiring both Amazon and D2C (direct-to-consumer) brands and channelling them into its multichannel strategy. Impressively, it does all this while sustainably donating a significant portion of equity to social projects and environmental charities.

Founded in just 2021 by six expert entrepreneurs, it’s aiming to be the very first UK brand aggregator to become a B-Corp.

”We wanted to give founders an opportunity for a life-changing exit, and give their brands the opportunity to scale faster and further with the help of dedicated expert teams,” enthuses cofounder Titus Sharpe.

What gives The Mothership Group the edge in the ecommerce industry? It has an admirable process for putting its own expert founders at the heart of its strategic decisions. Each member has valuable entrepreneurial and marketing knowledge to help them take acquired brands to the next level.

Already proving to be one of the fastest growing startups in the UK, The Mothership Group has raised a huge £16.7 million in March 2022 from private investors. The Mothership Group plans on taking this investment and adding to the rich tapestry of acquired brands, expanding its portfolio and, in particular, searching for sustainable brands.
