In March 2020, we were in the most acute Covid period and containment was decided. It was also time to reinvent ourselves. Newtree Impact was born ! As a passionate nature lover, I realized how deeply the food chain is involved in the climate crisis and the loss of biodiversity. Hence the idea of creating an investment holding company with a positive environmental impact. With two main missions:  💡 To propose innovative, sustainable solutions for the food chain  🌎 To make it possible for everyone to invest in these innovations We wrote these missions into our bylaws, establishing ourselves as a company with a mission. And now we've just completed a second fundamental step: our first crowdfunding campaign. We welcomed nearly 290 new investors who collectively invested €2 million to revolutionize the way we produce and consume food. I am deeply grateful for this positive momentum and for the opportunity to raise awareness about the solutions to tackle food system unsustainability. Thanks to Trends Canal Z and Olivier Mouton !

Disruptors. Pioneers. Notino. Did you know we are one of the top 10 e-commerce retailers in Europe?👀 From a small Brno company that has grown and transformed the #onlinebeauty market by 180 degree. That’s @Notino 🎊 The pan-European giant in online sales of perfumes and cosmetics. And how did we do it? Our journey started in the heart of Europe 🙈 In the Czech Republic, where we now account for 15% of our turnover. We are one of the pioneers of the online perfume market, and despite various challenges, we continue to grow. The second stop was Slovakia 💪🏻 And today, you can already find Notino in 27 european countries! With the expansion into new markets comes the need to expand our team. For each new market, we have had to create a new team of the best #NotinoPeople, tailored to the specific needs of that market. This is one of our key strategies, which we will look at in more depth in future posts 😉 The great support that makes us here is comes from big players like Coty, L'Oréal, LVMH or Estée Lauder and lot of others no-less important who got excited about the idea of #Notino 🤝🤝 Together we built an e-commerce cosmetics platform in Europe and made it easier for customers to purchase perfumes and cosmetics. The first of the big established houses to take off was Coty - which represents world-famous brands such as Chloé, Gucci, Burberry, Calvin Klein and Hugo Boss. Soon after, it was joined by L'Oréal and others. Another big success for us was LVMH. But our expansion doesn't just include #onlinemarkets. Stone branches, logistics centers and warehouses in different countries are an integral part of our growth 📈 Our goal is not only to expand online, but also to provide our customers with a personal touch and a brick-and-mortar shopping experience. You will learn more about these topics in my upcoming posts. Whether it's online or in brick-and-mortar stores, our goal is always to provide our customers with the best possible #Notino shopping experience 🛍️😊

A great talk given by our IFBM - Institut Français des Boissons de la Brasserie et de la Malterie General Manager Marc SCHMITT about proteins in malting barley 📌 keypoint is : do barley and malt really need 10% proteins content to have good brewing properties ? 🧐 why being concerned ? Proteins come from fertilization, which is itself responsible of 75% of the CO2 emissions of barley production ❔ results : this long-term fundamental R&D project is at mid-term, as for now it is highlighted that barley variety is preponderant. Some varieties give very good malt even at less than 9% proteins. A strong database is being built, more data coming !

Nature's beauty is irreplaceable, with its vibrant colors, soothing sounds, and incredible diversity. However, the impact of climate change on our natural ecosystem necessitates the collective responsibility of protecting and preserving nature's biodiversity L’Oréal Groupe has started to play its part. Through the L’Oréal Fund for Nature Regeneration initiative, €50 million will support innovative projects that help restore damaged ecosystems such as forests, mangroves, marine areas, and degraded lands. The end goal? To restore 1 million hectares of ecosystems by 2030. What do you think we should start to do on a personal level to preserve biodiversity? #CreateTheBeautyThatMovesTheWorld

The latest on RetailWire ➡ Levi Strauss & Co. has launched a revamped store in Kyoto, Japan, adopting the “NextGen” format aimed at improving the shopping experience. The newly reopened Levi’s store, located in the Teramachi Kyogoku shopping district, occupies a spacious 570 square meters across four levels. This expansion makes it more than double the size of its predecessor, which had just two floors. And this isn’t your typical Levi’s store in any standard shopping center or location. Through a combination of store design layout and locally tailored offerings, it makes a statement and aims to generate more sales from its community and beyond. ⬇ My comments featured below ⬇ "Levis’ localized strategy across the store experience and product mix could be the winning strategy that all retailers need to consider. But Levi’s must have exceptional product obsessed store associates on the shop floor to make this concept successful. I would love to see more retailers take this hyper localized + experiential approach to their stores but I am not sure they would make this investment. They are too concerned with reducing operating costs and most strategies today are reactive. Inventory management is still a top concern and until retailers can get their product assortment in check, their focus will not be innovating their stores." ➡ Checkout the discussion here: https://lnkd.in/eTbCq9qj #retail #retailwire #braintrust #retailnews #levis #stores #technology

As Bordeaux En-Primuer 2024 comes to an end, I will try and summarise my thoughts on the vintage. The growing season was challenging with severe mildew issues and a freakish rainstorm hitting mainly the upper left bank on the 20th of September. Those who dared (and could afford to risk it) left the Cabernet out and they have no doubt made the best wines. The domaines who rushed to get the grapes off have produced wines with not so pleasant green, underripe Cabernet. Having said that I definitely think it’s a Cabernet vintage. Most of the top wines have good amounts of Cabernet in them and a beautiful spine of good tannins and acidity with a bright freshness. In comparing ‘22 and ‘23, the 2022 had much more fruit density where the 2023’s are more open and have left space for you to walk in and search for the identity. I compare to a newly produced music album versus an open analog recording from the early 60’s. There can be no doubt that the vintage is no 2022 but overall it is good. We are hearing that wines will start to get released on Monday and it will be a fast and intense campaign, expected to have finished by the time of Vinexpo Hong Kong on the 27th of May. I can’t remember the last time we had wrapped up before June but I’m all for it. I’ve spoken to Chateau’s who have hinted at lowering the prices but also one who was confident that they would increase! Let’s make it clear, this is not a vintage to take any risks with pricing and given the issues facing Bordeaux and premium wine world wide it would be madness not to lower the prices. We will see on Monday! Some of my highlights of the tastings in no particular order: Chateau Haut Bailly Chateau Margaux Chateau Pichon-Longueville (Comtesse) Chateau Figeac Chateau Pontet Canet Chateau Cheval Blanc Chateau Belair-Monange Chateau Trotanoy Chateau Montrose Chateau La Lagune (QPR of the year?) Chateau Branaire-Ducru Domaine de Chevalier (Blanc)

Already that time of the year with Bordeaux En Primeur Campaign about to start.. and this one, 2023 will be quick and efficient. The market expected -40% versus 2022 (low volume-high quality) and that's exactly what happened this week with Leoville las Cases and Pontet Canet, 2 major brands of the left bank, releasing at the level of 2019. To understand the 2023 vintage, which is quite heterogeneous: . The aromatic freshness of 2019 and the generosity of nature of 2015 or 2016 . Unlike 2022, the terroir has taken over climatology, so 2023 is the expression of the signature of (large) terroirs and their grape varieties . Merlot year on the Right Bank and Cabernet on the Left Bank. . Maturity will show up soon, offering a great drink ability even on a young vintage (2026-2035) Reminding our services, we offer only to our discerned clients wonderful allocations of fine wines, servicing from the purchase, logistics including in-bond storage, insurance, re-delivery to the re-sell. We also offer a management online through the blockchain with rekolt.io Julien Angevin - May2nd - 2024

At Alexandre Bonnet, 100% of our champagnes are low dosage, either Extra Brut or Brut Nature ! Why ? Because it's trendy ? Not really... At Alexandre Bonnet, winemaking begins in the vineyard. We give ourselves the means to seek out the best possible ripeness, thanks to our internal ripening monitoring, plot by plot. A low dosage Champagne is considered to be extra-brut when it contains between 0 and 6 g/l and Brut Nature-Zéro dosage when it contains between 0 and 3 g/l. To produce Champagnes with little or no dosage, they need to be made from fine grapes with sufficient ripeness to strike a balance between structure and aromatic freshness. The aim is to set a harvest date once this balance has been achieved, which generally allows us to dispense with chaptalisation. This reinforces the decision to age the wine on laths for a minimum of 36 months. At the end of this period, we test several dosage levels, and it’s almost always the lowest dosage that best brings out the wine’s minerality and complexity.

Despite the fact that that there have been no official press announcements yet, there are strong suggestions that Aurea will be the new owner of The Body Shop. Thank you Julia Wray and Cosmetics Business for discussing this with me: What does Aurea bring to the deal: - A fund wholly specialised in beauty, which is rare and necessary - The agility and focus that previous owners Natura &Co and L'Oréal could not offer - Team members with a track record in building and exiting beauty brands - Specialist team knowledge in store management, DTC, Amazon and US channels What does Body Shop bring: - One of the UK's most loved and nostalgic beauty brands (fully visible from the public reaction to it entering administration) - An opportunity to rationalise store footprint and SKU's to improve operational efficiencies - Pioneering in it's sustainability principles, with the potential to reinvent this creativley - A bricks and mortar focused estate, providing the chance to both capitalise on consumer experience and broaden channel mix I think many people would love to see The Body Shop given the focus and investment that it really deserves.

Couple of years ago, I believe in the trend of Chinese companies going abroad. Therefore, I was deeply investing in the social media network, market research and ecosystem establishment. For the market research, we now have a good solution for efficiently understanding the non-Chinese markets, it's called Suwen.AI. For the social media network, Suwen has the capabilities of Chinese Weibo, the Red etc. but still we are lack of experience in the non-Chinese ecosystem... until we have read the following post. It's really worthy to watch the video and for all Chinese brands who are investing in the foreign markets, there are mature tools, ecosystem and solutions for supporting your healthy growth.
