Toletta Secures Investment on Lion's Den Kenya

Ottawa, Ontario, December 20, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Kenyan distributor of Ottawa-based Toletta products, Integral Three landed a considerable investment from two leading business moguls on Lion’s Den, Kenya’s iteration of the well-known business television series Dragon’s Den and Shark Tank. The Toletta product caught investors’ attention with its high-quality protection against germ-ridden surfaces and its potential to improve hygiene in public restrooms across key markets.

“The use of public restrooms is a necessity for many people at some point throughout their day. Given that a public toilet seat fosters nearly 50 bacteria per square inch, it is no surprise that many people dislike and avoid this experience,” said Caine Ruckstuhl, Founder & Creative Director, Toletta. “Toletta was founded as a solution to this problem.”

This investment from some of the most influential business leaders in the African market speaks to the capacity of this product to spark positive change in cities around the world.

Toletta’s premium toilet seat covers are designed with three strong layers of antibacterial protection – at least 42% thicker than any other toilet seat cover on the market. Toletta seat covers are also conveniently biodegradable, meaning they can be safely and responsibly flushed down the toilet after use.

Posed with tough questions from Lion’s Den investors, Integral Three remained steadfast and secured a deal that will help propel Toletta distribution to Kenyan markets. In a shared deal between two Lions, trailblazing entrepreneur Olive Gachara and venture capitalist Kris Senanu agreed to invest a combined 300,000 Ksh for a split 30% equity in the business.

“It is Toletta’s mission to help make the inevitable everyday task of using public restrooms much more enjoyable and safe for people across the globe,” said Ruckstuhl. “This investment from some of the most influential business leaders in the African market speaks to the capacity of this product to spark positive change in cities around the world.”
