Our plant bases and concentrates are made from minimal, whole, all natural ingredients. We supply food service concepts, manufacturers, and retailers nationwide.
Whether youre using JOI to make pure, customizable plant milks, or using it as a base in your recipes, our plant bases are extremely versatile and easy to manipulate because of their clean ingredient lists!
Our concentrates take up 90% less space than typical boxed milks, and can be stored at room temperature for up to 12 months. That means you save precious refrigerator space, can get 9x more product per shipment, and reduce food waste from spoilage.

Latch makes spaces better places to live, work, and visit.
Apartment buildings haven’t changed in decades. People spend thousands of dollars every month for an experience that is outdated, inconvenient, analog, impersonal and leaves a lot to be desired.
Leveraging our knowledge from product companies like Apple, we’ve rethought how people interact with space. Latch delivers a full-building operating system designed to help owners, residents, and third parties like guests, couriers, and service providers seamlessly experience the modern building. We’ve done this by combining software, products, and services into a holistic platform that make spaces more efficient, enjoyable, and profitable.
Founded in 2014, we started by defining the smart access category. We then went on to create our own hardware and software for a range of smart building devices, built integrations with Google Nest, Sonos, Honeywell, ecobee, Real Page, UPS, and more, and in 2020 unveiled LatchOS, our full-building operating system.
Today, more than 1 in 10 new apartments in the U.S. are being built with Latch products, 7 out of 10 of the NMHC largest developers are Latch customers, and 36 states feature Latch buildings. We are a global team of 200+ team members working to reimagine the modern buildings of today and drive the evolution of the cities of tomorrow.

Loverboy is the top-performing brand in the Hard Seltzer & FMB categories. We are revolutionizing how alcohol is sold, consumed, & experienced by taking a digital-first approach to the trade & building direct relationships with consumers.
But what exactly is Loverboy? We are a premium alcohol and lifestyle brand focused on setting new trends and standards in the better-for-you and ready-to-drink beverage categories. Our Sparkling Hard Teas are sold through the 3-tier system, and our RTDs and Merchandise are sold direct-to-consumer. Aside from our drive and commitment to creating game-changing beverages, Loverboy is a do-good company. We are on a mission to show the world a good time while finding new ways to give back each quarter.
The result? Loverboy is the #1 brand in the beyond beer category based on our $ velocity. We are also the fastest-growing omnichannel alcohol brand, and we are doing it organically and profitably. Our team has built a best-in-class distribution network of over 150 wholesalers, providing nationwide coverage as we rapidly expand to meet pent-up demand.
What about the culture? Loverboy is a Play-Hard, Work-Harder family. With CEO Kyle Cooke at the helm, you know we’re all here to have a good time doing what we love. Though we are known to burn the midnight oil, we understand that balance is key to our individual and collective success. We offer unlimited vacation days to do use at your discretion, work-from-home flexibility, and an opportunity to earn equity in the company.
Our focus is on building a positive, welcoming environment that thrives when team members think proactively, work collaboratively, take initiative, and aren’t afraid to roll up their sleeves and wear multiple hats.
