Enya, a visionary period care company based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, has managed to grow its path to regional expansion. With Choco Up’s support, Enya has been able to scale its operations and make an impact on women's health and well-being.
Enya's mission is simple yet profound. “We want to provide affordable, high-quality organic cotton period products to all,” said Christian Teo, the Co-founder of Enya. However, the challenge of delivering exceptional quality at an affordable price arose as Christian and his partner started to build their own brand. As a startup, the local brand faced difficulty securing traditional funding from banks and lenders due to its size and relative newness in the industry.
Choco Up: Their Best Financing Alternative
Christian then learned about Choco Up, a financing platform that operates from a refreshingly different perspective. Rather than solely focusing on conventional criteria, Choco Up assessed Enya's business potential, revenue, and growth trajectory. This unique approach allowed them to recognise their true value, unlike traditional lenders who hesitated to take a chance on a budding startup.
Bridging Funding Gaps
Christian highlighted the invaluable role Choco Up played in bridging crucial funding gaps during challenging moments, even when larger banks were not able to help. The financing options enabled Enya to meet essential payments and maintain a healthy cash flow. Such flexibility provides much-needed support to businesses like theirs.
Words from Emmanuel, our Account Manager
“Christian is a very sincere, great and friendly person to work with, helping and being prompt in providing the right information for us to understand their company. Throughout the process, we have seen how they have grown, and it's heartening to see that they are now in many distribution channels like Watsons and other pharmacies. Christian and I are great friends and they are happy to work with us and trusts Choco Up to fuel their growth.”
