We feel that companies will adapt, like NEXE has, or get left behind. There’s no in-between and no third option, as we see it. Most people are not going to tolerate the “dirty economics” of heavy-pollution businesses anymore if the trend continues. NEXE Innovations closed at CAD$3.96, a new all-time high, appreciating by 155% in one month! Global pollution levels are reaching critical mass and one of the most enduring problems facing the Earth is the plastic crisis: - 365+ million tons of plastic are produced per year
- Less than 9% of the plastic is recycled
- 79% of the plastic ends up in the environment (land and oceans)
- Plastic products can take 500+ years to break down
Coffee drinkers love the pods but may hate what the plastic in the pods does to the environment, and so do lawmakers. Coffee pods can wind up in rivers, where they wash into lakes and oceans. Over time, the plastic will break down into smaller pieces that can choke and kill wildlife. No corporation that we're aware of wants to be associated with the negative press that comes with producing these plastic pods. The coffee market isn’t going anywhere in terms of demand for coffee pods. In the U.S. and globally, coffee-market revenues are on a powerful upward trajectory: *The global coffee market was valued at around $102.15 billion in 2019 *That market is expected to achieve revenues of $155.64 billion by 2026 and is growing at a CAGR of 6.2% between 2020 and 2026 *The U.S. at-home coffee market is set to grow by 4.9% in 2020, reaching $15.6 billion *44% of U.S. coffee demand comes from millennials – a massive and highly influential generational demographic segment Due to their convenience, the pods make up a sizable portion of this highly-lucrative coffee market. In fact, single-serve coffee pods comprise 50%+ of all coffee consumed and indicate 8.5%+ compounded growth per year. The single-use capsule industry is expected to reach annual consumption of 50+ billion units in 2020. The NEXE POD may be a clear winner in a head-to-head comparison with conventional rigid plastic coffee pods: - Cool to the touch
- Fully compostable
- Plant-based
- Superior taste
- No adhesives
- Soy-based ink
The cost of human labor in the production of each pod is less than 10% of the cost of the pod since the operating lines are fully automated. Once management scales the business further, that labor cost and material cost will come down even more. This fully customized facility and the one that the company intends to expand into right next door will allow for manufacturing 220 million pods this year. This is a 100%-owned facility, including the real estate itself. From concept to execution, NEXE is allowing scientific research to be its guiding force in building the perfect pod.
