CRESS Secures $234K in Pre-Seed Funding to Revolutionize Sustainable Shopping for Families

We are thrilled to announce that Cress has successfully raised $234,000 in its latest funding round—a milestone that will propel our mission to revolutionize how parents shop for their children while making a positive impact on our planet. At Cress, we have built a trusted marketplace that embraces sustainability, offering innovative solutions for buying and selling children’s products, clothes, and accessories. Our core vision is embodied in our name, Cress, which represents growth, renewal, and the commitment to reducing waste while extending the life of essential kids’ items. This significant funding injection will be used to expand our platform, enhance our user experience, and further develop technology that supports our sustainable shopping ecosystem. It will also allow us to forge new partnerships with local businesses to bring more eco-friendly products to families, empowering them to shop sustainably without compromising quality or style. Our dual approach not only encourages parents to purchase gently-used items at economical prices but also creates opportunities to sell outgrown treasures, ensuring that every product finds a meaningful second life. Investing in Cress means investing in a future where community, conservation, and commerce work hand in hand. With this new capital, we are set to accelerate our growth, expand our reach, and deepen our commitment to creating a circular economy where waste is minimized and every family can save and even earn money. We are excited to welcome new partners and customers into our growing community—a community dedicated to making choices that are kind to both our wallets and our planet.
