Mexican retail group Zebrands secured a $53M syndicated loan from HSBC and Banco Sabadell.
Zebrands will use the funds to open at least three new stores per week in 2025, scale manufacturing capacity tenfold, and buy back shares from seed investors.
ZeBrands creates and manages direct-to-consumer (D2C) brands using an omnichannel strategy. Zebrand’s portfolio includes 11 brands offering products like sleep essentials (Luuna), fitness apparel, travel bags (Mappa) and home goods (Nooz).
Zebrands, founded in 2015, operates in Mexico and Brazil. In 2020, Zebrands’ portfolio brand Luuna began vertically integrating its mattress and pillow manufacturing to improve supply chain control and product quality. Today, Luuna has grown to 180 stores and over 500 points of sale across Mexico.
