Soulgenic, the Jersey based Health & Wellness App, has secured funding from three of Jersey’s most successful entrepreneurs to help fund the growth of the business internationally.
Aaron Chatterley (Feelunique), Richard Goulding (Play.com) and Nigel Le Quesne (JTC PLC) have backed the Jersey startup with pre series A funding of £500,000.
Founder and CEO Glenda Rivoallan started the company in late 2016 from one desk within Digital Jersey and the company now boasts a 10,000 sq ft Head Office which also operates as a working health club and wellness centre.
Soulgenic’s digital platform has been developed beyond its initial viable product phase and is now generating revenue. Soulgenic provides a fully curated wellbeing journey encompassing the 4 key pillars of wellbeing: fitness, nutrition, mind-body (yoga and mindfulness) and general health.
Glenda said:
“It has been an exciting road to get Soulgenic to where we are today and we are thrilled to have been able to attract investment from such high calibre, experienced investors, it really is a testament to the quality of the product that we have built. For me, it isn’t just about the funding, it is imperative that we work with people who have been there before and succeeded on a global scale. Our investor group have done just that with their previous businesses and we are incredibly proud that they have shown belief in not just us as a team but also with the future plans for Soulgenic. These truly are exciting times for the company.”
Aaron Chatterley Founder of FeelUnique, who is one of the trio of investors and who will sit on the board said:
“Soulgenic aims to solve a problem by providing an anytime anywhere wellbeing solution to help corporate organisations ensure their staff are both physically and mentally healthy and fit for work. We firmly believe that Soulgenic can become a household name in corporate wellbeing solutions and for that reason we are delighted to provide the necessary funding for their exciting growth plans.“
