Craig Isakow is the Co-Founder and CEO of Moonshot Brands, and is an entrepreneurial executive, operator, and founder with big company experiences including McKinsey & Airbnb. As Shift’s (NASDAQ: SFT) first employee, Craig played a key role in scaling the company from idea to over $100M in funding. Craig also launched an Amazon and Shopify business featured on ABC’s Shark Tank.
Craig explained in an interview for Tech Startups, “Moonshot Brands, a rapidly growing platform that buys, launches, and scales direct-to-consumer and marketplace e-commerce brands, emerged from stealth mode today with $160 million in funding. The financing came from Y Combinator, Victory Park Capital, Liquid 2 Ventures (Joe Montana), Garage Capital, FoundersX Ventures, Outbound Ventures, N49P, KSK Group (Keisuke Honda), and the founders of the unicorns Hippo, Lambda School, and Shift.
Founded just last year by Allan Fisch and CJ Isakow, Moonshot Brands acquires high-performing Amazon third-party sellers and direct-to-consumer businesses on Shopify and WooCommerce. Moonshot Brands also partners with the most successful owner-operators of third-party marketplace businesses and direct-to-consumer brands. Moonshot then helps these brands achieve their potential through growth capital, data, deep expertise in operations, supply chain management, marketing, omnichannel distribution, and international expansion.”
