UMSL Accelerate DEI announced its third cohort, funding six early stage and minority led startups with $50,000 each — and two paid student interns.
“This positions us to scale and grow exponentially,” Mr. Fresh co-founder Shay Danrich told bizblip. “We’re already in 24 Schnucks supermarkets and 14 Mobile On The Run stores, and this capital allows us to get into another 19 Schnucks and 15 On The Runs… we’ve been holding off because it takes capital to expand.”
Mr. Fresh sells air fresheners and deodorizers. The St. Louis company launched in 2018 and has one full time employees. The startup also has products in Dierbergs and Phillips 66 stores.
