Lil Yachty And Terrell Owens Invest In Breakthrough Premium Plant-Based Nutritional Supplement Brand PlantFuel®
New Plant-Based Nutrition Brand Announces Strategic Investment From Rap Superstar Lil Yachty And NFL Hall Of Fame Wide Receiver Terrell Owens
MISSISSAUGA, ON, Aug. 31, 2021 /CNW/ -- PlantFuel Life Inc. (CSE: FUEL) (OTC: BLLXF) (FSE: BR1B) ("PlantFuel" or the "Company"), the scientifically focused plant-based wellness company, today announced that Lil Yachty and Terrell Owens have made a strategic investment in the emerging sports nutrition brand coming to market in early September. The commitment of Lil Yachty and Terrell Owens to the Company and its innovative, premium plant-based brand further strengthens PlantFuel's breakthrough into the nutritional retail sector.
"I'm super excited about my new venture with PlantFuel," said rapper and entrepreneur, Lil Yachty. "It's brands like PlantFuel that inspire and allow me to stay actively involved creatively beyond just investing."
PlantFuel marks Lil Yachty's second deal with Scoop Investments, the rapper's newly launched VC fund with his music manager and advertising exec, Adam Kluger. Scoop's recent $1M investment in the members-only, Jewish dating app 'Lox Club' back in June 2021, was Lil Yachty's first step into venture capital which he did alongside Kluger and rapper Bhad Bhabie. In addition to PlantFuel and Lox Club, Yachty hopes to close on several more investments by the end of 2021. Legendary NFL Hall of Famer, Terrell Owens, also joins the ranks of Lil Yachty and Scoop Investments as he explores new revenue generating avenues outside of professional football.
"As everyone knows, throughout my professional career I've been in phenomenal shape and extremely conscious about what I put in my body," said former NFL Star Terrell Owens. "From Day 1, I was thoroughly impressed by my exploration of PlantFuel and its products. I am excited about my partnership with PlantFuel and delighted to join their team."

The brand's category-leading Performance Protein supports strength and recovery through its Performance Protein, a tri-blend of 20g of vegan and plant-based proteins that contains all nine essential amino acids, and is fortified with performance mushrooms, algae, BCAAs and caffeine from known suppliers.
