Aiming to rid the world of plastic bottles, company crowdfunds $500k in two hours

A Christchurch-based social enterprise wanting to rid the world of plastic, crowd funded half a million within two hours of its Pledge Me campaign going live.

Ethique​, a hair and beauty products company, was looking to raise $1 million through crowdfunding and private investors to expand its business overseas.

Founder Brianne​ West said the campaign had nearly 1300 pledges, many of whom pre-registered 21 hours before the campaign went live. 

Once it was live, Ethique raised the capital within two hours.
