Mission is a high growth start up fuelling the world to achieve more than it thought possible. To achieve something extraordinary, we believe you need sustainable, natural energy and we’ve therefore created a range of innovative drinks to fuel high performance.
Since launching in 2019, we have gained multiple national awards, worked with hundreds of professional athletes and have become one of the UK’s fastest growing startups. We have also secured £3m in funding from the ex and current leadership teams of Hello Fresh, Kraft Cadbury, Brewdog, Allplants, Gumtree, Graze, Saatchi & Saatchi and Redrice Ventures, as well as Jake Humphrey, current England cricket captain Heather Knight and the western world’s most seasoned Everest climber, Kenton Cool.
We are now bringing together a group of best in class operators to propel our business from early stage start-up to an established household name, fuelling as many extraordinary achievements along the way as possible. With ambitious plans for the future, this is just the start of the journey.
